I don’t like curved forks, on larger sizes when the legs seem to bend backwards relative to the headtube angle. I know it’s to reduce the rake, but it gives me a ‘I’ve crashed into a car’ vibe

Is this actually a thing, bending the forks backwards to reduce the rake? I always thought it was just an optical illusion.

You’ve taken the words right out my mouth, I had also always assumed a trick of the camera or a flaw in my eye.

yeah, I guess I assumed that was barrel-distortion in camera lenses, but...
