Hi
Thanks for reading this.
I run a Kinesis Maxlight Phase currently has 150mm Revs (spec is meant to be 140mm but .....) with 27.5 x 2.25 wheels/tyres.
I am looking to run 27.5 x 2.8 but the Kinesis website says it should be run like that with 120mm forks (which I don't have).
Would the world blow up if I carried on with running my 150mm Revs with 27.5 x 2.8 wheels/tyres ??
Any advice warmly welcome
Not sure the tyre will fit, or clearance will be rubbish. Rock Shox recommend their 29er fork for 27.5+. I tried mine in my boost 27.5 Pike on another bike just to see and it barely cleared. Would have been useless in mud.
Thanks clubby new forks it is then
