you mean raked trees, or raked bearing cups?

You can get 3* from raked bearing cups, provided they'll fit our frames. He would need longer forks, of course.

Raked trees are not a solution, not a good one anyway, because it will screw his trail up and make the bike handle awful. Raked trees are not the same thing as raked bearing cups or a raked frame.
