Dang thats some offset. Does look pretty eager for a front load i guess. How is handling unloaded? And was it also to reduce toe overlap?
Btw, very pretty bike as always ♡

Unloaded it handles like a fat pig on stilts, although that also might have been caused by not enough pressure in the tires. Haven't ridden it unloaded since airing 'em up.
Did so to get a lower trail number for better front load handling. Loaded up it's pretty nice. Still different from a typical high trail bike. Other bonus is more room for a larger bottle underneath the DT, although not enough chainring/crank clearance to keep the Blackburn cage underneath for some Nalgene carrying.
Also, last rack and dynamo tail light fitted. This thing is prepped for proper carry everything touring.
Lots of bolts going on with the front end, and nearly every braze-on on the bike is in use. It's great.
