The industry responded to investor unease about front-end loads by almost eliminating them: Sales of front-loaded funds declined from 90% of the market in 1961 to 35% in 1999.
Typically, drivers never come close to the cornering loads necessary to feel the difference, but in the RLX, the quicker you go, the more the nose-heaviness manifests itself in understeer, a tendency to lose grip at the front end while cornering at high lateral loads.
