    so sat here bored thinking of what to do with my spare fox floats and i was thinking my float 140 a to c are 510mm and the middle of wheel to outer tyre edge seems to be about 340mm so 850mm in total my surly 29er are 470mm a to c and wheel seems to be 370mm so 840mm.

    so if i ran it at 20mm sag they would only be 10mm shorter than my current set up

    so any reason i couldnt stick my fox 140mm forks and my 26" front wheel on the front of my karate monkey 29er

    anyone done it, any thoughts, i thought it might be fun to try something different

    i know andy its just ive always called it babysitting 😉 seems odd calling it owt else

    jase i may mail you tomorrow im a bit undecided tbh if i want to keep the 07 floats i have or the 09 talas . the talas are fitted at the min but i never adjust the travel and they are worth more than the floats.

    bloody bikes lol
