Ah awesome. I havent noticed that! The bike lock works good because it keeps the rain out of the inside of my helmet but if what you say is as good, I'll definitely be switching to that! [this is why I love forums :2tup: ]

Not sure I know quite what you mean here. What's "squared off"? Am I not leaning into corners enough?? :??:
[just got it back from a service so a bit concerned to hear this]
EDIT - on second glance, I see the way it is looking a bit square. Reason may be that it was sitting in a shed for about 4 years before I got it hence the service. Have since put 3000km on it but still, if this is what you mean, it may be due to the fact it hasnt been used very much before I got it - ?
