Once tensioned correctly, it feels just like all other steering systems, but with much better turning radius which is super helpful in tight situations.
I had to re-read what I wrote 2 years ago please don't eat my brains Nacho..lol (it is a zombie joke). The steering was set up correctly the tension was good we made sure of that and I believe at one point our Yuba rep at the time came by and checked it out as well, there was a little play which wasn't good. I am really surprised you like the steering on the SuperMarche more than the Load. Though minus steering if you say the ride of the SM is better than the Load I just won't believe it.
