Yeah, 26mm offset is really steep. Mess up on front tricks and you're going down if you don't have control.

I love my R25s for street, imo its not as bad as I thought. Nose tricks are noticeably easier, but not to the point where I feel like I dont have control over my front end. It still takes a bit of effort and balance to do nose tricks, unlike Primo Strands or S&M Fast Pitch.
Unless im cutting a tight turn, or trying nose tricks, I never really noticed much of a difference from my 32mm Sunday Octaves. Really the only big difference they made was now I can nollie a few inches higher.

ive always ran 32mm offset since I've started riding years ago. My hang 5's are difficult to balance, would a 25mm front fork make the balance point easier to hold?
