I always wonder how they steer with the forks that far out. It seems like you would
be trying to slide the front wheel sideways when you turned the bars.

Again they're German. And me like too. :mrgreen:

Handling isn't that bad. Getting used to it, is a matter of hours.

trust me you don't want to try , worst handling ever exactly like a lowriderbike , if you go to fast or turning , the fork have a tendency want to flip backwards like a castor wheel :?

I have a three inch rim with a set of hookworms stretched across and they work great. Just make sure you get a big enough tube
