I'm a pretty conservative rider and usually coast through (tight) corners. I'll have to take some measurements and see how the pedal clearance compares between the T400 and my PX-10 650b (never had a strike on that one). Did you dimple your chain stays? Clearance is quite tight with 42c tires and I've got the axle all the way back in the dropouts, so I'm going to do a wee bit of dimpling (have another frame in the queue I want to do too), just haven't had the chance to build up some kind of dimpling apparatus..
