Default -ve grams = +ve ££££'s! plus thoughts on reactive castor!

Quite right SlowOne, diets cost money and as I have said from the beginning of my diatribe!

IFS - it will be interesting to see how this works in combination with the lowered pod pivot.
I have never liked the degree of caster change and induced anti-roll with the transversely stiff standard twin beam setup, also splitting the lower beam into independent wishbones may effectively increase the caster change on the loaded wheel due to removing some anti-roll resistance!
What this means I cannot imagine yet and when you compare what the Zen offers with effectively no anti-roll or caster change, apart from any load induced flex in the king pin mounts, then is the Schumacher far too complicated?

LMP's have long used reactive castor change but I don't think it is anywhere near as much as the Schumacher, I stand corrected if I am wrong on this!

We await Marks findings on this one I'm sure!
