I don't think so.
TTBOMK:
1 There aren't any photos of riding position or hand position.
2 And we don't know in which direction the hands want to come off the hoods.

I don't think so.

This is exactly what I expected, someone discussing Physics on a cycling Forum who clearly believes he's above everyone because he like Physics....
As you seem to like Physics then maybe you could do some research and then post your findings if they contradict what seems to be the accepted reasoning behind cornering?You never know you might revolutionise cycling!
Or most likely not.
Wot is this shopping tab? Does it contain special cycling gubbins that's irresistible, highly functional and inexpensive? Do they have a similar tab for woodworking gubbins that elsewhere costs Far Too Much?
It's what has to be paid, either before leaving the shop, or at the end of the month, or in easy instalments.
I have heard of these "easy installments". Aren't they the installments that become progressively less easy as the interest racks up? Then the bullies come for your house or your tibia, some with a warrant and some with just a pink-tinged baseball bat.

Usury will be banned when I'm in charge. So will shops, especially furniture shops as everyone will have to make their own just like me. It's a feature of dictators that everyone must be just like themselves, see?
I might allow bike shops but the bikes will only be available in exchange for a car, which cars will provide the feedstock for more bikes. Some will be destroyed in a ritual fashion, perhaps with the criminal driver still aboard but released just before the final crush.
Cugel, planning a personal utopia, pointlessly.
Thats a turbo trainer Doff. It clamps either side of the rear axle and gives an artificial load to the bike while you pedal. This sort of thing although there are lots of different ones you can buy.doffcocker wrote: ↑28 Jan 2023, 3:54pm One thing that doesn't help in terms of me getting the fit right I guess is I have nothing to hold the bike while sat on it static.
What's the thing called that I'd need to buy exactly, i.e. the thing that's holding Colin's bike in the pictures?
A cheaper option is leaning against garden fence, or house wall. Not AS good, but cheaper; and I did once get some useful feedback on this(?) forum by such an approach!doffcocker wrote: ↑28 Jan 2023, 3:54pm One thing that doesn't help in terms of me getting the fit right I guess is I have nothing to hold the bike while sat on it static.
