How does it change things..in what way? I dont know. I just know it does.
No it doesn't, it lowers the tt and therefore shortens the seat stays and the headtube. With classic geometry it does not require changing any angles(outside of the meaninglessone related to the seat stays) nor does it require changing the lengths of any other other tubes. Therefore it effects neither weight distrobution nor steering geometry. The only difference in ride left is the miniscule change to stiffness.
Once again you are blabbing about something you don't understand. You even admit you have no clue about it. Why bother posting at all?
