Rocket-tre, as Teabag says, your tyre seems to have more curvature that others that I have seen. This should lead to easier straight line handling and a little less counter steering effort needed. What make/model and size is your tyre? Davo

Hmmm, that Vredestien looks different to my Toyo Proxes.
I was going to have the edges on mine buffed to round them a bit but it was easier to crank the bike over on the edge and do a couple of burnouts hehe
