Maybe if you sprung for the rear sets. I'm too cheap to do that and my back is not fond of the position; but that does sound tempting. Otherwise, fab up something.
The stock pedal is really very very nice and so far, my bit of tweaking - close to butchering, but I figure it can be bent back or replaced (should buy one while I know they are available). So far, for me feet, the bend is working. Still considering new boots (Forma keep coming up as super boots to ride and walk in so they are on top of my list) too.
I waited too long to bend mine, but once you get your bike back, at the first sign of pedal dragging, bend that sucker in a bit. At best it will give you some time to consider choices before you toast another disc like I did.
You may not catch yourself doing it, but the black paint on the outer edge of the disc will start to change color. Monitor that too. The heat will toast the paint before it seriously warps the disc. I was slow to pick up on that. Hopefully my mess up will help others avoid my mistake.
