Are you kidding? If you were an experienced enough rider to warrant being that much of a snob, you'd know that toe overlap happens and deal with it. The only time toe overlap is going to affect your riding is a extremely slow speed cornering. Which is rare on a bike. You need to just get over to and learn to deal, rather than swapping cranks/forks etc. That just silly.

Get out and ride already.

Jeesh!

Unless the majority of your cornering is done at 3 MPH a little toe overlap is never going to factor into actual riding. If you "won't ride with toe overlap period" then you need to get a touring bike with 26" wheels.
