Hey, I'm wondering what what effect pf raising the bike 1 to 2 inches would be. I'd be doing it for ground clearance. Would the bike retain its steering and stability? XD From just a road riding perspective.
Or, you can do what I do and just put your bike on a rear stand, grab your top yoke, place your other hand on the back of the seat and push down hard a few times. If the front and rear feel similar you're good to go! Of course I'm only a pretend racer who just likes sliding his knee and scrubbing the rear tire to the edge.
