    I am fitting a 490mm height fork on a frame where the max recommended is 470mm.

    What is going to happen to me when I ride it ?

    Details of the frame (mine is a L)

    …based on large frame as your chart: 1 deg slacker HA/SA, 7mm higher BB

    Be fine, crack on.

    Brilliant. Thank you. I expected not to be a big issue, particularly when my technique is the weakest link… by far !

    Cracking on.
