Anyone who is using the concept of trail braking in this thread and does not have a front fork that is a suspension is talking out their nether hole. Your need to be able to have compression to reduce the trail and shorten the length thus making it easier to turn. The only thing that moderate braking during the turn will do is to transfer weight to the front wheel and giving increased traction. So it is not considered trail braking but weight transfer braking.
