Bike porn

Not feeling those.

The first is'nt much to look at. But I'd love to ride it.
The second looks great, but doesnt make me want to swing my leg over.
Maybe neither is porn :(

I guess theep HTA is to compensate for zero-ish mm fork offset.
With regular HTA, the trail would have been too much/big/large/whatever...
Again, I recommend Mike Burrows bike design book.

The resultant trail might be spot on TBH. But rider weight distribution is going to be less than ideal for rough stuff (I'm guessing). A slacker HTA would likely afford you more comfort from the rigid Ti fork too.

Note to self:
Must try harder.
