done a search but not seen this exact topic covered before...
On my pompino I've noticed the steering feels less predictable, comfortable than my road bike. I'm wondering if this is to do with fork rake or trail. It feels somewhat like a wheelbarrow (this is the best analogy I can come up with), and I feel distinctly lacking in confidence during some turns etc, especially on off-camber descents but often during fairly normal riding. I'm finding that even when coasting at slow speed I often prefer just to lean into the corner than attempt to steer normally.
