Those are the things that I think of to produce more stable steering, but sounds like it's already been done. Lower tire pressure?
Seems like the steering would be much more laid back than the other bikes in your sig line.
Exactly... The main difference a Roubaix and Diverge test ride seemed to me to be slower steering and cushier tires. I doubt much different feeling than a Trek touring rig, but it's been ages since I rode one of those. Maybe try a slightly longer stem and narrower bars?
