Low is good, in my experience. The only non-trail issue that I've
encountered is coming off curbs, as you pointed out. I just installed a flap
for the front fender on my Quickbeam, and I had it designed it to be about 2
inches off the ground: http://tinyurl.com/4hknbhw. I know others have theirs
even closer to the ground: http://tinyurl.com/4nlvfff.* *


As William said, enjoy the dry feet :)
