In GPB, there is a barrier that prevents the bikes from overleaning.

Not sure how it works exactly but it seems to limit bike lean based off maximum edge grip available at that given point.

In theory it's a good idea.

However it seems to prevent the bikes leaning when on the brakes, which can make some interesting handling behaviour, and riding styles. It is a particular issue when you're leaning over at full lean (50°-60°) and grab the front brake....
The bike often simply stands up, instead of the front folding into a crash.

It can be 1/2 edited out in the mods .tyre files, but this seems to not be 100% in keeping with realism, and handles badly.

My change would be that it simply limits the maximum lean value, at the point with the most lean. (Set in the tyre files)

instead of changing the maximum lean value based off the grip at that specific point.

For me this would help trailbraking a lot as it would be down to the rider and effectively take away some of the assistance, without causing some undesirable cornering behaviour.
