You could just give yourself a little more time with the straps. I really haven't had any trouble with mine at all--I've only been using them since March. But I DID loosen them way up when I started out.
On my 1000 the pedals have a little dealy sticking out in the middle of the bottom of the platform which lets you turn the pedals over and slide your foot inside in one swift motion. I taught myself to use that right away, and then I taught myself that I would be pulling my foot backwards to dismount. So far, so good. ::::working spells to keep the jinx away:::

Silver, nice ride!!!
At first I didn't know if I liked the color. I was going for the price. It's really growing on me now."Chisel praise in stone; write criticism in sand."

I understand exactly what you are saying. I just don't know how or where you do that.Did you understand the flip the stem part? you turn it upside down so the the angle it up rather than down."Chisel praise in stone; write criticism in sand."
