Lemond Fillmore 08 vs Fuji Track 08 vs Charge Plug 09

1. Is it just me who doesn't think of a track bike's handling as twitchy? I suppose it is a subjective term but I find they have a fair bit of understeer which leads to you having to rely on weight shifting to turn and move resulting in a very smooth turn. To me BMXs with wide handlebars are 'twitchy' as you can make very small adjustments with the handlebars that result in quite big turns.
   
   

I think people are making an assumption that a track bike will be twitchy without understanding trail and rake. A shorter rake fork can offset the steeper head angle making the trail equal to a longer rake shallower head angle frame. And we are only talking about 0.5 - 1 degree on head angle and up to 1 cm on fork.

The thing that makes track bikes worse/dfifferent on the road for me is the higher bottom bracket and steeper seat angle which puts the body more over the front of the bike hence putting more weight on the bars and creating different handling. This may be what some people don't like?
