Cambridge being Cambridge I stepped into a quiet residential road only to have a bike sweep swiftly around the corner and narrowly miss me. Normal stuff. But it was a very interesting ancient 1950s thing. With VERY slack forks. Lots and lots of forward sweep. And then in the opposite direction came a run-of-the-mill 2000s cheap mtb with - yep - 69 ish head angle. My latest mountain bike builds (Cotic, Transition) have involved slackness - around 63 degrees. But in the 1990s and early 2000s steep was still a thing. This is from the 1930s - competition frame - not steep.
