Hi
I was wondering if there were any 27.5+ frames that are 142x12 rear , I am currently running 27.5x3 tyres on WTB scrapers but my frame may have a crack it is something I am keeping an eye on but if it gets worse a new frame would be needed obviously.
Any advice warmly welcome
Thanks
Surly Karate Monkey with gnot-boost will fit just about any axle combo.
DMR Trailstar - will just fit a 3" in the back, but works well with a 2.8.
Not sure if there's any stock though.
For reference I'm 6ft and on an XL for the extra reach.
My Bombtrack Beyond + came with a non boost wheel and the boost axle wound in to pull it in 6mm. Been riding it like that for a couple of years including swapping the rear wheel to a boost one every now and again. Both me and the bike are still in a one piece (well 2 separate pieces, but you know what I mean)
Santa Cruz Chameleon and Stanton Sherpa (may be previous generation) both have non-Boost drop-out options.
Surly's knot boost frames will take either 142 or 148.
Thanks all I did look at the Bombtrack but Surly it is
