From my understanding, Trains have 2 or 3 degrees built into the trees, just as Wide Glides do. When you purchase trees, the degree rake they advertise is rake over stock wide glide trees. When I installed the 3 degree trees on my Train, it made a bit of difference to the frontend. Those trees are now on Mark's (Story's) bike and it looks quite different than the stock trees on his also.

so when you order aftermarket trees, and they ask you if you want 0,3,4,5,6 degree trees, 0 is technically a stock tree? or the 3* is stock and 4 or 5* would be a little over stock.

Ask them if 0* is the stock wide glide set-up and go from there. Pro-One 3 degree trees are 3 degrees more than stock wide glide equipment.
