I guess you’re more ‘over’ the front wheel? To me it rides normal, perhaps steering is lighter/more direct/twitchier than other bikes. I think the A2C is longer than conventional road fork, perhaps you could swap it for a canti/gravel fork? no idea the effect this would have on handling mind you.
How's the geometry for the zero-rake fork? Were you to fit a more conventionally-raked fork, would the handling be predictable?
