Orange clockwork finished p11 bit of a squeeze.

Re: Here we go again clockwork.

Based on my understanding.

Slackening the head angle will decrease the steering responsiveness giving you greater high speed stability but it will be harder to turn, hence shorter stems and wider bars on modern bikes to give extra leverage. Raising the BB gives you greater ground clear, obviously but also raises the centre of gravity which will hinder high speed cornering. Slacking the seat post should in theory make pedalling more efficient but it will also shift your weight back lightening the from end.

Sounds like fun

Bit low at the mo. Do gave longer steerer on black fork though.

Re: Here we go again clockwork.

The more I think the more it needs the longer steerer on the black forks. Shame really but that's why i bought them. Another lash up.

Re: There was much wailing and clockwork orange/lemon See Page 9

What is going on with those skewers? Didn't give them a thought. Not trimmed cables either

The cage will distract from them
