Default 3* rake

If you change out front end of sb to wide with 3* rake what effect on handling does that have? Thanks

SB? basicly you are increasing your trail. 3* isnt awhole lot ,but you may want to proceed with caution. There are calculators out there that you can plug your numbers into. RB racing website has some great calculators you can play with.

Actually, if all you do is rake the trees, the trail decreases, because the axle is shifted forward while the steering head rake stays the same.
