How do y'all clamp your bikes on the workstand? I am scared of clamping on the post stanchions or anywhere else on the dropper. I have heard it's fine to do this and others saying to never do this. What's your thoughts on this? I use a scorpion stand but it's not convenient when I need both wheels off.

Rode last night and trails were in pretty great conditions, a few puddles on log loops, church hill was actually dry, bmx loop was good though the pump track was too wet to ride, .6 had some wet spots, but overall really good. Did not get to windy loop, probably a little wet over there. There was so much grip! Get out and ride today if you can!

Yeah I use the dropper constantly too, makes riding more fun for me. Great for jumping, turns and generally hooligan antics.

Nicely done!

I think if I saw off the big toe, I can fold that part of the shoe in and make it work, one less nail to clip

Yeah I researched it more and it can only happen in extreme situations, must be flex in the fork and frame. Going for a new bike this winter, going to run some spacers in the meantime. Really shouldn't be happening, going to pay attention on the my next ride.

going to try these, thanks csmceuen!

Just under 6'6". The honzo is big but I could use a longer toptube, it's a '13 honzo, not sure if they went bigger. Have to run the seatpost super high and the seat all the way back on the rails. Have been trying to ride with heels down but must get lazy.

horrible images in my head

Yeah running 175mm cranks and don't remember this happening on 26ers

Hah I have tried this, while living overseas I couldn't find my size and wore shoes that were too small, unfortunately my feet bounced back.

I have it all the way inboard because of heel rub, but didn't think of a washer. What kind of washer do you use?

I realize this is probably poor technique and bike sizing, but I noticed my shoes have a little tire rub on the toes after a ride. I am on SPD's and have the cleats jammed all the way back and this feels best to me. I am on a XL Honzo that is too small for me and I have size 14 clodhoppers so I am sure this is not helping. I could move the cleats a little forward but I like them there. Anyone else experience this? I haven't noticed it while riding. I am sure it is when going slow and turning with the pedal at the 3 o'clock position. Should I just learn to ride better or change the cleat position?

Man no one seemed that excited about the endo, that was a nice endo!
