Just curious. I'm dreaming up my bike for the future and was wondering how many of you chose absolutely no toe overlap and how you came to that decision and its effect on your ride.

There is a discussion of toe overlap in the Seven Custom Kit package.
I don't have a Seven (Merlin instead) and I think a lot of the hype around toe overlap is overblown. I have toe overlap, but the only time it's an issue is when I am going phenomenally slow and making a tight turn. When I'm going that slow, I just make sure I have my feet placed where my toe will not touch my wheel.
It's just not that big of a deal to manage. I'd rather have geometry that worked for the 99.9% of the time when I'm not going super slow and turning.
