Does this geometry assessment match with my ride feel assessment that it handles like a top heavy truck. (i.e. not very nimble, hard to corner sharp, unwieldly)?

It is a 61cm frame (ST) and has a 57cm TT.

I too thought the fork looked bent in the photo and checked in reality and it doesn't appear to be. I had LBS put in new headset and they too didn't notice bent fork. There is also no incident in past that would have caused bent fork.
