Anyone done this? Is it OK?
I know On-One state 100mm max travel for the Scandal but I'm sure Brant set up his prototype with a 120mm fork at one time and surely others must have tried it.
Sorry not tried it but even with a 100mm fork the bike sits up very high as is typical with 29ers. I see no reason why you can't I'd just run it with an increased amount of sag.
Yup - have a 19.5" Scandal V2 with 120mm REBAs and a 70mm stem. Works fine in my opinion
The scandal v2 has a steep headangle so an extra 20mm of fork height will just slacken things by 1 degree which will make it about 71 degrees so still steeper than most frames so it will be fine I am sure.
I keep thinking about doing it to mine
Didn't want the front any higher so slackset and 100mm forks on mine
Rebas set to 115mm on mine,rides fine!
Didn't suit my Inbred. Rode better at 100mm.
Not sure how simmillar the Scandal and Inbred are.
