Depends if you use a low stack headset though.

If you are using a a hope step down or fsa 15-1 1/8" headset it will be long enough

if you have to cut it now, 195 will be fine. there's nothing wrong with a few spacers here and there.

Just make sure the fork you are buying works with a low stack headset though, as some can strike the downtube on turning 90 degrees.

My fox RLC talas work fine even when the tals knob is activated (so you WILL be fine)

I'll probably be selling a brand new hope step down zero stack headset, fitted but never ridden. Get in touch if you're interested.

The mmmbop headtube is 115 mm and 119 mm with the hope zero stack headset fitted.
