Default raked bearing cups and raked trees???

Hi,

Anyone ever used raked bearing cups and raked trees together? Seems like a nice way to pick up 3 more degrees, but want to make sure there are no forktube alignment issues.

Anyone seen this done or done it yourself?

Thanks,

Joe

On all my rides I've always just raked the frames. But I'd go with the raked cups and stock trees if I had to as a second choice. Just the raked trees on a stock frame decrease the trail, so that would be my last choice..
