Pedal Blocks

Right now, my Bacchetta Giro 20 is almost adjusted right. But I want to move the seat up a little I think.

Problem is that the best way to carry the bike up the stairs to my apartment is to pick it up by the center of the frame and just lift. If I move the seat forward much more, I won't be able to grab it at the center of gravity and carrying it upstairs will be a major task.

So I need to make my legs longer. I thought of pedal blocks like I had on my first bike before I grew into it.



Or maybe some thick boots. Making the crank shorter seems counter productive. Any ideas?
