It's not a big deal to move the pedal up an inch and your foot should not be riding or resting on the pedal anyway - that's what the peg is for.

I understand the purpose of the peg. My concern is that raising the brake pedal will increase the awkwardness of the angle of the foot (imagining the peg as the fulcrum, the heel in an uncomfortable "way down" position to compensate for a ball of the foot "way up" position to avoid resting on the brake pedal.) As it stands, with the peg in the arch of my foot, The brake pedal falls under the ball of my foot. If the bar is immediately forward of the pedal, that also means that it is likely that my toes will catch on the bar as I apply the rear brakes. I have BIG feet (14). I'm wondering if any other brand of bar (Baron?) is situated or shaped a little farther forward for better clearance.
Thanks for your answer!
