Trending: Mountain Bike Tech to Look for in 2019
You are only looking at half the picture, you make them more stable by increasing the trail, then you recover the loss of steering speed by fitting a shorter stem and combine that with a longer top tube to put your handle bars the right distance away from your pedals. This gives you a more stable bike at speed that still turns normally. As a short offset 29er rider I definitely wouldn't go back. The biggest bonus's I feel are stability at speed and a much more natural feeling turn initiation, oh and more front end grip, thats definitely a bonus.

@00putz what tyres are you running to get tyre rub? my Maxxis Aggressor 2.5 WT DD is miles away from rubbing.
