That looks super! Would you be able to provide a photo of the clearance between the Fox arch and the tyre? If I like what I see I'll be doing the change before the year is out!

[NotSoBigBen]

Very nice bike mate! Hope you have great fun on it, I love mine.

 

Let me know what you think of the Ritchey tyres please, thinking to replace my rear Pacenti with one ....

[rob7x]

Let us know how the bike handles. Grip, cornering etc?

[Jakkals.]

if you say that your RS had clearance but very little, do you perhaps think that a DT swiss fork will work? the arch is definitely bigger than that of RS.

[Cav']

Very nice (even when it was still a 26'')

 

Nobody wanted to buy it for weeks - I bet if you put it in the classifieds now....it will sell in a day!

Nice Bike.

[Madmac]

Very nice bike and i am sure there is a lot of us thinking of doing the conversion now that our 26" bikes are becoming "worthless".

 

Is that a 26" F-series fork?

Take it to your lbs and check. Best to check with tyres on and pumped.
