Bicycle Strait fork vs curved fork?
I see some road bikes with a strait front fork like this http://www.trossachscycles.co.uk/images/etb/bikes/0812.jpg
and I see others with a curved fork such as this http://www.bikesdirect.com/products/motobecane/images/lsl_wht_2100.jpg
I am wondering if one is better then the other, and what the general characteristics of each one is. Any knowledgeable answer would be greatly appreciated.
A straight fork gives you a much more agile-handling bike, what with the shorter wheelbase and the front axle won’t be too far off from the line of the head-tube. You must also be careful of toe overlap though. *Generally speaking* you mainly see straight forks on Track Bikes in the veledrome as they don’t have to worry about the above issue as they only have to turn in slight increments.
