I have just ordered a size L Longitude frame in my ongoing quest to own a plus bike when there appears to be none available.

I was looking for a 29+ but decided to go for 27.5+ at the rear, I want to run a 29+ on the front, but not sure if it will fit in the fork that comes with the frame. Anyone tried this?

Plus mullet, is that a new genre?

Bar the slight deviation one year to an aluminium boost fork I believe the rigid steel offering hasn't changed over the years.

In my experience the 440mm AtoC fork has ample room for a 29er 3'' tyre on a 50mm rim. I currently run a Chronicle or DHF on a Dually or Rabbithole rim on mine.

Run my Stooge as a plus mullet, works well for me. Also plenty of Stooge Scramblers frames available.
