that’s a good point. ground clearance won’t be too much of an issue with a 1 inch or 2 inch drop, especially for people who hang-off on the street. turn-in will be slightly slower but you’ll get better mid-corner stability from the longer wheelbase.

but there is definitely something special about a quick handling bike, even if you aren’t pushing the limits it still feels nice to chuck it into a corner with very little effort.
