Hi all
I'm looking at getting a set of these (420mm axle to crown) for my monstercross bike as my Kinesis DC19's don't have the tyre clearance.
I know the 29 x 1.95 tyre will fit side to side in the Pace forks but am unsure how much clearance there would be under the crown.
What I need to know what is the axle to the underside of the crown measurement? I need 390mm minimum to get a 29 x 1.95 in
I would prefer to use this length but if someone could give me the same dimension for 440mm forks
Thanks for any assistance

Just back from the garage with a tape measure....
On my 440s, the crown "assembly" is 30mm deep. I'm assuming it's the same on the 420s.
440-30 = 410
420-30 = 390
So, you might just make it but there would be no mud clearance.
WHY..?
Just buy a niner and have it done with.
Thanks Druid
390mm is allowing for 15mm mud clearance as the tyre is 375mm diameter so hopefully ok.
I think I'll call Pace on Monday to make sure
That's OK. Always nice to help someone out without having to call into question their reasoning 😉
