Cub Yokes

I See some billet yokes for the cub have a 1.5° offset between the fork tubes and spindle, which way does this offset go? (Front wheel towards the down tube, or further away)

And what’s the reason, to tighten up the steering angle or to help the front wheel clear the frame?

Hi

To answer your question - Front wheel further from the down tube. This reduces the trail.

The standard cast iron Cub yokes had this offset.
