Someday, I hope to hear Grant's thoughts regarding handlebar height and trail, alluded to in that article.
*Most of our bikes have trail numbers in the high 50s to low 60s. Combined with a high handlebar---which I think affects steering a lot, but I'm not going into that here---the result are bikes that, for better or worse, but I hope better, ride just the way I want 'em too.* Handlebar height is probably the most important bike 'measurement' (read: high enough) for me. I can make some guesses about high handlebars send weight distribution rearward, and that combined with the "quicker" steering of a low trail fork, might lead to a "vague" handling sensation. But it's just guessing on my part. On Tuesday, September 5, 2017 at 11:54:56 AM UTC-4, Patrick Moore wrote: > > Thanks, all.
