I was thinking about this...

Can you really get your foot down any faster on a small wheeled bike? For me, the saddle height from the ground is about he same on all my bikes. Surely that's the only real factor in how fast you can get your foot down...

That's also why when I'm riding in particularly icy conditions I tend to lower my saddle a couple of cm.
