I just got one of these for a bike I'm building up. I ride with front pannier lots it's not an issue so long as you are in the saddle, up out the saddle the bike goes a bit wild(with panniers). Unsure how this will change with the new rack as it won't turn when I steer so the weight should stay in the middle.

So I'm looking at plans for a cargo-ish bike for my photography kit. Basically I'm sick of carrying up to 15kg on my back in a rucksack. Only problem is that when I had a cetma rack (which mounts to front hub axle and handlebars), the vibrations from the road killed my kit, and it was a fairly expensive repair to get some of my lenses fixed.
So, I'm thinking I have a small/med front rack about A3 size, that mounts to my frame. Pic below. If I was to get fat tires - say 1.75 - and some front suspension forks, do you think this would work?
@M_A_X you mentioned up thread about weight/rake for steering, how much do you think this would be affected? I'll be carrying average 10kg most of the time, though sometimes 15kg.
