Yes.

Suspension design means the rear wheels will pivot around the mount point (ie, up or down) when locked inplace, if you aren't on a level surface.

Agreed ... and makes for interesting hill starts til you get used to it, especially if someone is very close behind you.

In Paris you see the same thing happen wih the buses ... Renaults I think.

Cheers
