Trying to figure out why they’ve used a 26″ fork. Surely it really limits tyre choice and wouldn’t be a good choice for UK weather due to lack of clearance?

Something to do with offset/rake I think. Trek use different offset for their 650b bikes, although not by using 26″ lowers I don’t think.

There’s not a lot of clearance, is there?

or just how ‘different’ a 650B wheel is? 😉

Interesting, think its just the Hlhigh rollers, look at this pic, plenty of space for a mucky nutz.

Looks like a nice bike.

Eh theyv used 26 fork ?

As far as I’m aware my 2014 one uses a 650b and there’s not masses of clearance tho thats with big rims and a 2.4 tyre.

Theyve not clogged all through last winters slop even fresh cut ukge stages, the Megavalanche however …..

i still wanna learn more about a 26inch fork, or are you getting confused with the 167?

Its all on their website…and even in some reviews I found on the internet?

link, coz I cant find anything about it?

is this some kind of test?

my 2014 model defo has 650b forks, i just checked!

FFS – no idea what I was reading at 4am this morning on 2hrs worth of sleep…suffice to say I may have made it all up!

I’m a numpty of the highest order!

Lack of sleep does that. 🙂
