For XC use, using a 2 – 2.3 tyres.

I have an Amazon voucher to use that’s why I was looking on there for forks.

I would guess no. They look like BMX forks…

If they're 450mm axle-crown (which is what the ad. says) then yes,
they will – easily.
I've used Salsa Cromoto 425mm forks with a 29" wheel and had plenty of room for something like a 2.35" Rampage.

The radius of a 29" wheel with the Rampage is 375mm, BTW.

For XC use I predict they will be harsh, heavy and awful. I do know that's not exactly the question. 🙂

I would tend to agree, as they look like jump forks or something like that.
I can recommend the Salsa Cromoto's for a 69'er conversion though. I got mine from Wiggle.

Cheers all

So they would probably work but not the best?

So what makes a fork like this not so great for general XC use?

Trying to build up a 69er as cheep poss and I have £50 to spend at Amazon so I thought I would ask about.
