Anybody think this would work?

I seem to remember folks suggesting it would take a bigger wheel? I like the idea of keeping it indefinitely but thought this might give it a refresh once the plus tyres toughen up.

There wasnt masses of clearance in my C456 IIRC, and you'll probably need to be running fox forks.

Its running a Fox 36 at 140mm at the mo. I was presuming I'd need new forks?

Loads of clearance above the tyre but not much either side on mine, doubt it'd work.

Go for a Muddy ride, it'll have the same effect. 😆

Running a 26" 34 here and I can only just squeeze a 650b 2.25 Ardent into that and it's nipping the crown at full travel so it will depend how plus you want to get.

More things to file!

Sounds like a disastrous plan, as usual!
