Hi All,Has anyone had any experience of handling particularly on corners on an EW with footboards and 19 inch wheels.My Mate seems to think it may be a bit hairy,so some comments please.

Hi Bazza, you should have no problems with the riding and cornering on the EW. I ride regularly and find that if I tuck my knees into the tank I am able to lean the machine at the same angles as when riding my Velo Clubman.
Relax and enjoy your EW. Roy.

I guess the 19 inch wheels will reduce the lean angle though ?
