There is a thing in slalom waterskiing we call lean lock. That means you are locked into a path, can't get the hell off it and are headed for a super-sonic train wreck.
My TT bike, re-purposed for commuting has the same tendency, especially at speed. It's very difficult to alter a line once committed for a corner. My pure road bike doesn't do this.
Is it the fork angle - how close the fork or front wheel axle is to the steering axis that does this?
Do bikes like the P5 with that wheel tucked in compromise handling?
The reason I ask is my GURU CR901 looks like a chopper in comparison, I should have it on the road soon, but curious about the differences.
