Hi WayneUK!
I lowered the front at 15mm and made a big difference.
Positive:
1) You need less space to turn the bike.
Describe a semi-circle, for example. Before you had a custom.
Then a street bike.
2) I no longer stand the ballerina position (tiptoe)
3) Attack the curves better.
4) I made compensation with new handlebar supports. In height and advance towards my arms. I did not change the rear.Negative.
1) Copy the terrain with greater sensitivity and transfer to the handlebars.
Therefore it requires more attention, with holes, spines and unevenness.
Imagine an old disk dock, where the swinging needle door arm, copies the undulations / pucker of the disk.Conclusion: After several years, I'm sure, that was a change for the better.
I'm 5'8" ft
Cheers!
Hi Sidarta
Thanks for the info,
did you raise the handlebars 15mm to compensate for the 15mm drop in the forks?
