oooowwww my ankle!

ok well as you may know the 07 dx cranks have that nasty little nub
right at were the crank bolt is.

well it bit me today when i was practicing my 180 unispins.lol it was
funny couse not only did it make my ankle bleed it also punched a hole
right through my sock! lol.

so i was wondering, how can i beat this little nub? i saw this 'shoe'
(http://www.ebikestop.com/items/004-SH9015) in one of the bmx books i
get ever so often and was wondering if that would work.

if that dosen't work, and i would only o this as a last resort, is it
possible to shave that down?

p.s. for those of you who don't read the "today I..." thread i landed
my first 180 unispin today and gapped one awsome gap.any help is
awsome.

p.s.p.s. how did you guys protect you'r ankles from this evil piece of
metal?

The shoes that Terry suggested would be a good idea I bought myself a
pair of 661 ankle guards myself when I was constantly banging my ankles
(I have several pairs of socks that are stained red with holes in the
ankles) then I bought the ankle guards and was able to learn how to
adjust my riding position to avoid hitting my ankles all the time now
I don't wear the ankle guards anymore, I have a '05 DX which also has
cranks with nubs on them. Good luck with your ankle saving!
