Hi
Currently have an experiment going on running 27.5+ wheels on aTransition Bandit 29er.
It's working out ok other than I wasn't sure on space for tyres so got WTB 2.8 front and rear.
I don't feel there are is enough grip on the front but the rear is ok so what can I swap the front for?
The fork is a non boost Pike and I want it to be run tubeless!
Nobby Nic 2.8 or 3.0? Specialised Purgatory 3.0??
Or something else?
Also if you've got something you want to sell let me know.

I'm loving the 3.0" Nobby Nic on the front but that might be a bit tight on non-boost forks
Bridger looks good too.
another fat bandit here..

loving it, this thing absolutely flies.
I'm running a 2.8 NN front and rear on alpkit rumpus wheels.
loads of room in the back, front is non-boost revelations and is a bit tight, ~4mm each side. I heard a tyre rub the other day on a really fast rocky section where I guess there must have been a pretty big wheel deflection.
Nobby Nic 3.0 for me. Have it in a boosted yari. Is fantastic!
I ran a Nobby on the front for a few weeks and swapped out to the Pergatory and found it much much better
Bridger 3.0" on non-Boost forks (X-Fusion Slide) has about 2mm gap at the seal collar. OK in the dry but not in mud.
NN 2.8 is really good, and seems to be a bit tougher than the 3" version.
Ok cheers everyone
Will give 2.8 NN a go
Cheers
