hi guys, sorry if this has been done to death b4, but if wanting to put a rigid fork on a ti456, what length fork should i get? planning on keeping a 26"wheel in ...choices of 42.5, 44.5, 46.5...and am thinking 44.5 ...would this be correct? or with the geo of a 456 would i need a 46.5?
TIA...and have done the searches, even rung on-one and still no answers
440ish. 465 is for a 29er
and am thinking 44.5 ...would this be correct?
yep
blimey..that was quick...many thanks guys
440 is equal to a 4" suss forked with sag. A better option is a 26 carbon fork with a 29 wheel which lifts the front 1.5" and rolls much better over rough stuff and slackens the head angle a bit.
thanks for that big pete... sorry for a daft question...does the 29 wheel just go straight in? ie no fidling with brakes etc...if so might give that a go as have a 29" front wheel just sat there doin nowt
Hmmm, I have a 29er wheel with bonty acx tyre and a set of 440mm rc31s: be back in a minute...
...about 45mm clearance still between tyre and crown. Should work very nicely.
not so lucky here...forgot mine was a 20mm bolt thru..doh 
so next question.. where best to get a carbon fork as everywhere seems to be out of stock 
Exotic? Good and cheap.
as on-one keep telling me when i email them.. they are expecting swock delivery in vast quantities tomorrow... whether this means carbon forks too I couldn't tell you...
Exotic forks. Cheap, though seem to have gone up in price lately.
when i rung on-one t'other day they said they wont be gettin any more carbon forks in....unless that was a cunnin plan to make me buy the ones with canti brake adaptors on too
