Hi,

This used to be disabled in Chromium/Chrome. This overscroll navigation feature can get annoying when working with mac trackpad. 

It used to be disabled by a flag #overscroll-history-navigation , but the flag is no longer there

chrome-two-finger-swipe-1

Anybody knows how to resolve this in Chromium v51?

If you visit System Preferences → Trackpad → More Gestures, you can change the "Swipe between pages" setting from "Scroll left or right with two fingers" to "Swipe with three fingers". This disables overscroll navigation everywhere, and you can still navigate with three-finger swipes. You can also turn it off completely with the checkbox in the same place. Let me know if it works for you.
