The eBay problem
This paragraph may seem a little out of place but I have had a lot of problems with a couple of eBay members (megamanuals and lowhondaprelude) stealing my work, turning it into PDF files and selling it on eBay. Generally, idiots like this do a copy/paste job so they won't notice this paragraph here. If you're reading this and you bought this page anywhere other than from my website at www.carbibles.com, then you have a pirated, copyright-infringing copy. Please send me an email as I am building a case file against the people doing this. Go to www.carbibles.com to see the full site and find my contact details. And now, back to the meat of the subject....

Read it before.
I'm sorry but imo it is riddled with inaccuracies. Misleading. Imo.
The bit about braking force misses a lot out and what it has is poorly portrayed by the vector diagrams.
The association with rake and trail is way over simplified to the point where you coukd possinly argue it's wrong. Tony foale did an article on just that.
The section on telelever describes how all forces are transmitted to the handlebars. Way over simplistic, to the point of being wrong, in my eyes.
All above is just my opinion.
