    Looking to get some new forks. Have found some Fox Floats that are 140mm. My frame (Fuels EX8) is set up to run 130mm. Questions are –

    Can i run the forks at 140mm without damaging the frame if i rum more sag?

    Can the forks be dropped to 130mm by changing a spacer inside?

    If not, what 130mm bolt through forks are out there? Either 15mm or 20mm?

    you can drop the travel (althoughI'm not sur eif that changes the a-c measurement as well – phone mojo – the spacers are only about £2 each and they can advise ont he a-c thing.

    Keep them at 140mm.
    It wouldn't worry me in the slightest.

    140mm will be fine, but yes, you can drop the travel in 10mm increments by adding spacers to the air spring shaft. This is dead easy to do (instructions on the Fox Service site). It will reduce the a-c measurement accordingly.
