ive been riding a fixed gear for about 1 year, i like going fast but i have toe overlap so it depletes my ability to do some tricks. im looking for a good frame for a 650c front wheel or can barspin with a 700c good for tricks ,but it can still go fast aswell, and my toe clips WILL NEVER hit my wheel. thanks alot

Ha! Then that would require him to actually learn REAL bike control skills. Not gonna happen.
