While going up hill, it should not rub your toe at all. The bike should be thrown away from the down stroke side making impossible to rub your toe. this is off the saddle climbing. The only way it rubs is if you are climbing in the saddle and are crawling up hill trying to stay upright at a walking pace turning the handle bars trying to balance yourself from falling off the bike. You turn the wheel with the down stroke foot in the way causing it to rub. when one is riding, the wheel should never turn that much, there is never a need to do so.
