speaking as a person who rides small (<50cm) frames, i prefer a steeper head angle, a short top tube and toe overlap. using a slacker head angle on smaller frames always seems to me like a concession to avoid toe overlap, which is a nonissue on the track (and nothing to really be afraid of on the street, IMO).
