Lower degrees lean less, but often ride lower (less room between board and hanger)
Set up with the right bushings there will be no bite and max lean... I ride them with purple and green sabre barrels and can nearly get static bite on a killswitch, when riding, no where near to bite.

Do they really? Lower degrees are more stable and turn less, how do they lean more? Unless you mean that you have to lean more to get the same turn?

exactly. so the inside edge of the board is lower - and closer to your wheels

lower angles lean more easily and with less turn per lean than high angled trucks, therefore they are more prone to wheelbite on a board without cutouts. Think about it guys, a 0 degree truck is going to be easy as shit to crank over in a lean and bite whereas a 90* truck will not lean at all
