A place to ask bicycle repair questions, and for bike shop monkeys to share advanced non commercial wrenching resources (no YouTube self promotion). This is only for repair related topics.
It is the logical pedal configuration for clearance. So inside (of turn) pedal high; outside pedal low. Putting your weight on the outside, means just add a little bit of conscious effort and force into the foot on the outside. Likewise, just think about your hand on the inside of the turn and press down consciously, it doesn't take much.
Practice this in an area where you will not hit the inside of the turn and crash; somewhere open, like a parking lot. It may surprise you at how much faster you can turn at speed. Please don't let yourself get hurt learning this. I've seen it happen before.
This is a CAT 4 level amateur racing skill for being in tight quarters racing at full race speed. It is the key to not losing all of your speed in much tighter turns.
Thanks I'll try this with a helmet and gloves
