Sorry for quoting your post as example for making my point.

Again, you are correct: hanging off becomes difficult for extreme lean angles.
However, that is necessary evil for such extreme speeds.
There is no way for competitive riders to avoid that situation.
You say that "hanging off becomes difficult for extreme lean angles."

What do you mean by that? why does hanging off become difficult and are there things you can do to make it easier?
