    Short vs standard column for better stability?

    Short vs standard column for better stability?

    I have no empirical evidence for this but in my humble opinion raising any column (50cm or 10cm) will induce some extra instability Having the column fully retracted will lower the centre of gravity of the whole set-up and reduce instability - as I said IMHuO edit for spelling
