exactly.
by moving the pivot closer/intersect to the wheel you reduce neg.trail

but do you think less neg.trail would be an advantage?

the frontwheel would sit right between your legs in front of your crotch.
(hmm..?)
you would really have to sit to the front to get the pivot close to your hips.
as an experienced pythonrider, do you think that is possible?

also the weight is distributed more to the frontwheel,
would that be a problem?

thanks for your reply, dj
