Well it's hard to say, I only test rode one of these for a few minutes and then I just built mine up from a framesets so I have very little experience with the stock fork. The top tube appears to be level and the bike behaves quite well so far, it is still very nimble. As set up the bike does feel wildly different from the stock bike. I will say that the new fork shows its springiness under hard braking which can be a tricky and delicate opperation given the short wheelbase.
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy the bike!
