I like the look of the ragley troof as a new hard tail project,I will be spending all my spare doe on the frame and can't upgrade my fork for a few months.How will this frame feel with a 100mm fork?
?
as the americans would say, garbage.
I don't think there's many Troof owners on here. Messiah has a thread running but he's on holiday just now so might not reply for a while

Hm.
I have no facts to base it on, so you may choose to ignore me, but a Troof is proper long travel specific, so I imagine it would be pretty horrible on a 100mm fork. Rideable, just pretty unpleasant...

BB rather low.
All forks are same length when fully compressed though, so not too bad eh :-)?
It will be rideable but the Geometry is all there for a longer travel fork. If you've got 100mm forks and are happy for it to be 'not quite right' for the time being then they'll do... for now.
