I know people are normally asking this question to go the other way but I was just wondering if there would be any problems running a 150mm forks on a frame designed for 160mm forks.

This would only be a temporary thing until a set of 160 became available!

What do you think.

Forks in question are 150mm revelations ane 160mm lyrics. Is there much difference in the axle to.crown of the two.

Cheers

150 Revs on the left and 160 Lyiks on the right

Quite a bit then!

It will be fine.

WHOAH!!

You’ll need offset bushings and/or an angly headset just to keep yourself alive, never mind the trails

Nah, if you look where the axles are, the Rev’s axle is further down the lowers, so probably just the 10mm you’d expect.

Though this article (2010 spec sheet) suggest it’s about 15mm, so maybe a touch more than normal.

Anyway it about what your new frame expected axle to crown requirements are, which are not necessarily in line with RS AtoC measurement that matter. Doubt it’d matter that much

Thanks all.
