Building up a Ragley Blue Pig (old school 26 wheels), it'll have a 140mm Revelation up front which I understand put it on the slack side of geometry at the time (circa 2011)....i've ordered a Works Component -1.5 headset to further slacken things out without resorting to silly long 160mm forks for the same effect.

Any ideas on what HA I'll be looking at when completed?.... I'm thinking somewhere between 65-66 with 20% sag or am i way out.

I have a note in my Blue Pig X build spreadsheet saying 65.7deg static with a 150mm Revelation so if that's reasonably accurate you should manage to get close to what you're after with the angleset.

That sounds about right. I think they were 67.5deg sagged with 140s.

Stick the numbers in [url= http://bikegeo.muha.cc/ ]HERE[/url] - should give a fair idea

Cheers guys, helpful as always.... Haven't had a steel HT in ages, I'm excited and I'll bore the forum with pics when it's built, it's the 'in your face orange' colour so anything but subtle!
