Hub centre steering is a system that places the pivot point in the centre of the wheel hub. The advantage of this is that the design separates the steering mechanics from the suspension forces, this stops head shaking which is a problem caused by the compression of the front suspension forks under braking on conventional fork steering/ suspension designs. I will design this steering system into my race board because it gives high performance and is a suitable steering mechanisim for the single sided strut design I plan on using to attach the wheels.
