One cannot compare the airbike with the python steering

A python angle towards 50 deg will increase the pendulum

cornering.


And if you build a steering angle as low as 40-50 deg the turning radius ... well it would become hideous, wouldn't it?

I think Eduardo is right, when he mentions the Gauss curve.
The optimum angle will be somewhere between 70 and 50 deg.
