Have any of you tried the bike with 27.5 wheels? If so did it make much difference to the ride and in what way? I have one as my only bike and I’m tempted (when funds allow) to give it a go.
That’s how I run mine off road with 2.1 tyres and love it

Thanks jonny. What wheel and tyre combo are you running, how does it perform on and off road?
Running ritchey vantage wheelset with either specialised fast track 2.0 or ground control 2.1, I mainly ride off road with this set up and find it great, low tyre pressures at 18-20 psi front and 20-22 rear
When I tested the RAG+ with 27.5in tyres I felt I’d want wider bars/more flared bars than the stock option if I was going to get the benefit of the wider tyres. I miss that bike 🙁
You’re right there hannah, I’ve got cowchippers on mine. Much more confidence inspiring on the rough stuff. It really is a great bike, one of the best I’ve had and I’m a hopeless serial bike swapper.
