again thanks everyone for the responses
If you put the clipons above the triples it will definitely change the bike's performance. Dropping the forks in the triples will effectively change your rake and trail, etc. Turn it would probably quicken up a bit, but there would be downsides too for sure.

As far as simply changing the clipons themselves to ones with a different angle or height but that attach at the same point, the bike's performance would technically not be any different. However the amount of force (and the angle at which you apply it) you would need to give to the handlebars would change, I imagine.
