As for the balancing, I am asking the question that no one is willing to answer. What do you mean by balance, and more to the point, 50:50 balance? You can measure the weight distribution of a bike by putting a scale under each wheel. Is that what you mean. I'm just saying that 50:50 measured that way is almost impossible on a bike. If that is not what you mean, then what do you mean?
I guess that's good because when you go downhill,
your knee is not over the pedal spindle anyway,
& there goes the "Perfect Perch"
