Rear steer is a different matter. I think it was in C+ that someone
asked this and Mike Burrows answered it. IIRC he basically said that
what's fine in theory doesn't work quite so well in practice and rear
steer bikes tend to be patronised by people called Koko with large red
noses...

I was just thinking about this and considering what pushing a rear steer
trolley is like. There is only one word I can think of to desribe the
thought of rear wheel steering on a fast downhill and that is SCARY
(followed by lots of road rash and a stay in hospital).

There is a reason the back wheels follow the front and that is stability.
Rear steering involves the back going it's own way. Interesting...
