because they push the front wheel to the front a bit
well some of them do and some don't.
if you choose a road w-u with say 43mm rake than it'll dosnoventa your front end more than track w-u with 35mm rake or even w-u fork with Cannondale Trackā¢ rake which is 28mm.i love my 'dale with 28rake and occasional toe overlap to bits. although had a weak moment just yesterday with about to sell it. but it was just a moment that passed.
also wound ups are hhsb for the record.
i like it. those forks are so popular around the world it could because they push the front wheel to the front a bit giving more clearance and less chance for toe-overlap
