Yeah, this is a xs size (50) so when i order it and read about the 28mm rake I knew it's gonna be something different in daily commuting. But as I mention before, now it's ok. At the beginning the toe overlap was hard.
I really don't get the comment about the cockpit. I'm really open bout your suggestions guys. Here in my country few people ride bikes and even less if they are road/trakc bikes

yeah, at the beginning the "pedal" overlap sucks. i went to the floor a couple of times, but now it's non an issue. even in U turns.
the thing with the fork... i rather have more spacers than just chop the thing. Eventually i will put down the stem, I guess.
You are correct about the short stem. This is the first bike I choose the correct size. Previous bikes were too big or the geo was weird, and that's why I have a a straight post and a .60 stem.
This frame is compact, short, very tight (plus the 28mm rake). So i guess this is the colsest i'm gonna ride a track frame/geo.
I feel great with the bike at this point. I put the seat post a little bit higher and the saddle a little bit backwards because i had pain in my knee. So far so good.

I'm ridding a parllax now. I used to have a leader 725 and i can tell that even with the overlap toe thing at first, the parallax is a very responsive frame. I've been using this bike everyday, and i feel it just perfect. Message me if you want more specific info.
