I can add a couple of offset bushes to my shock which slackens the headset angle, but only by about 1*.

Is 1* enough to feel any difference?

I run adjustable forks which means the head angle changes already from 71*(120mm travel) to 67* (160mm) at the minute.

I went for Angleset headset and offset bushings! It’s brillbags!

Anglset too, dammit; hadn’t thought of that

Yes, they make a difference. And for what they cost it’s one of the best upgrades I did on my old bike

It doesn’t sound a lot but I *think* it makes a difference to my bike. Drops the bottom bracket a smidge so the whole thing feels less tippy too.

You’ll find 1 degrees of adjustment is very noticeable. One of the most popular bikes to install Offset Bushings in is the Enduro – which can only use one, so you’re looking at 0.5 degrees for that frame for example.

Hope that helps!
