Now that this thread has cooled off -- and also because Grant started a new follow-up post -- may I ask you-all some very basic questions about trail?
1. Does fork rake/offset alone determine trail? 2. If so, how much rake is low trail? About 45mm? 3. How much rake is mid trail? About 55mm? 4. How much rake is high trail? About 65mm? (I'd love to hear, in hard numbers if possible, what constitutes low-medium-high trail. Otherwise the distinctions blur too much to be useful.) 5. If I had, say, a Hilsen, could I simply buy the Soma forks that Seth mentioned (http://www.somafab.blogspot.com/2013/05/low-trail-forks.html), install them, and have an instant low-trail Hilsen--with no complications? Don't get me wrong. I love Riv and Riv bikes and have no desire to mess with their trail. I'm just curious, is all.
