    Well...

    That is somewhat safe thinking, but not correct. It is more drive until you reach maximum lift. When you reach maximum lift makes all the difference. Once you reach a limiting device, the sum of all forces acting on the axle tube equal zero. The bars are pushing down as much as the undersling bar, chain, shock, whatever, is lifting the wheel. I think that best sums up this whole discussion.

      AGREE, The balance you're referring to is matching your left rear tire to the track condition.

      The only times I've seen the incresed LUB angle not induce more drive is when a too soft of tire was chosen. That is a mistake I see quite often.

        not to be misunderstood as any amount of increased angle.
