How am I going to shift my weight back? I mean come on guys, think about it-that comment only works if A-you're not pedaling or B-you're sitting down. My guess is that somebody needs to make a bike for sprinters with longer chainstays. As a sidenote, I ride with a 20c on the back and a 23 up front- to those that have this problem; are you riding a narrow rear tire like me?

yup, 20 front and rear
