they came with 110 mm forks as standard. I'm running my rebas at 115mm fine. Just curious really if it'd take a bit more travel? or adjustable fork like a pike or sommat, so u could wind it down for climbs? cheers

so long as the steerer is long enough for the headtube and the front brake hose will reach - why not.

err, cos it'll weird out the geometry and add extra stresses to headtube n stuff, that's why I'm asking!
