I measured the head angle on my Heckler at the weekend (a poncy mate has an iphone).

65 degrees FFS! IS this normal? It's only on 150mm 36 talas and the rear tyre is bigger !

Rides fine like - pwned said mate all weekend.

Don't forget that the world revolves around Apple so the ground will have moved as you moved the phone, affecting the result.

My iPhone doesn't give accurate head tube angle readings either...

actually, it turns out you're holding it fine but there's a long term calibration error that means the readings are 3 degrees out.

Only if the dangle is static

He was playing with it all weekend. Couldn't leave my phone alone either.
