States 44mm on the RS 35 Gold 150mm forks that came fitted though as I have a lovely set of DVO forks that are mint and setup real sweet for me...
I personally reckon that by swapping out to the DVOs will be fine and that 32mm stiff DVO chassis I can live with just fine!
Anyone care to share geometry effects of this as if it say slackens head angle by 0.5 degree - this personally would bring it to a more sensible 64.5 degree head angle
Tia stw 👍
i think if you didn't know it was different, you would never realise when riding. Not that ti's exactly the same but changing forks changes so much else.
Exactly my thinking !
Thanks for confirming !
So I should stick with the DVOs that are tuned in to my liking is what you're pointing towards yh?
Pretty sure some industry dude reckons it makes little difference?
552mm vs 573mm axle to crown so it’ll steepen the angles by almost a degree, slightly increasing reach, lowering stack and BB. Longer offset will speed steering up further. Will probably be fine as you’re starting with a very slack head angle!
Thanks for info buddies🤟
Will get my DVOs upped in travel asap
