As with the Tubus Rack above the Bruce Gordon Front Mountain Rack partially straddles the steering axis. I have found the steering to be excellent and I use front panniers only normally with 60% of the total load.
The load is stable and rock solid so there is no side to side movement of the rack or bags as you steer. This is most helpful on unpaved roads and technical single track.
