Centrifugal force and klinky balls prevent me from leaning that far. :side:
But I'd like to try getting closer, if I had a safe way to detect the clearance while in-motion. Perhaps some curb-feeler type of thing is available just for that...

Wrap a piece of sheet metal about 30mm wide and ?? long around the peg so it hangs down enough that it touches just before anything else. You should be able to hear it scraping when it contacts the moving pavement.
