If you are under 5'-6" and riding a track bike with a high BB, horizontal TT and 700c wheels you may have no choice. You just learn how to mount and dismount your bike w/o banging your junk on the TT. As long as you get the correct relationship between contact points (pedals, saddle, bars) all is good.
