Sweet bike. I think what you're really interested in on the fork is the "trail" You draw a line thru the steering axis (steer tube) to the ground. Next drop a vertical line thru the center of the axle. Measure. The greater the number the more stable the bike will be. It also won't respond to input as fast. It doesn't matter if the fork is straight or curved. It's the relationship between the steering axis and the axle.
