The other thing about going too low. You are no longer in the middle of your shock/coil-over stroke. You are now closer to the bump stops. If you are riding on the bump stops in a turn and hit a bump. You don't have any travel to absorb the bump. Something not good is going to happen. The next thing is if hard on the brakes before a turn. You use up your travel and are on the bump stops. You hit a bump, guess what happens next. This may be one of the reasons for ice mode. Something to think about.
