Yes that's right. I am replacing my old indoors bike, usually used on rollers with an occasional trainer stand confinement. I ridden rollers for many years and have no issues with no hands and slow races. The various bikes I've used have usually been my road bike until 1998 when a built a spec fixed gear "track" bike. This bike's steering geometry is not extreme (74* HA, 35mm rake with 700x25s and a BB drop of 65mm). It rode well enough on rollers for my needs.
But I do wonder what other more experienced guys think about the geometry and that rollers, not roads, will be the bike's primary use. Is maintaining the same trail and front center as a bike ridden on roads (not roller drums) the best? I know it works, what I wonder about is if less trail positively changes the stability while on rollers.
Any thoughts? I'll likely just dup much of what I know works, still I do think about changes. Andy
