i bet moving your saddle down and back and same stem slammed will solve all your problems. just my thoughts. do your thing.

Might consider that, I'm not being closed minded, I'm just trying to be comfortable. Sitting in my shed last night I checked my fit, my knee is not over the pedal at this point, I also swapped to speedplays and don't have shoes until Tuesday, ordered the huez mavics (super cheap) so I got some work to do.
