Plus one regarding wide platform pedals being a contributing factor. I
rarely have had pedal strike except when using the VP platforms that Riv
sold. If you want to pedal a Riv through corners, you'll probably want a
Roadeo, Ram, or Roadini with the biggest tires you can get and clipless or

Thanks for the clarification. This was what I was looking for, but
probably did not ask too well.

Crit bikes have high BB's because you need to pedal thru turns. Riv style
frames are not made for that. You just don't pedal in turns. Wide
platform pedals don't help either.

What Ted wrote. I almost never get pedal strikes from turning, only from
rocks :)
Fixed gears require different technique- you lean your body, not the bike.
