Just bought my first ever proper bike and I’m taking it out for a spin. Realised I need to really work on my low speed control and maybe try to learn track stand….
Is there any advantage to the front fork (skewer?) design other than aesthetic? Am I dumb and missing something? Seems like a needless amount of torque on that joint.

So go cycle ebikes have something similar but for both wheels where they took inspiration from racing cars. I think one of the reason makes it easier to remove the wheel

I’ve had mine for five years – love it. Handles absolutely no differently than a standard fork. Plus, it’s a great conversation starter – I usually open with “yeah I got it for half price on eBay.”
