bellasboy Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 I'm wondering if anyone knows if I can fit 27.5 wheels to my +\- 08 HiFi DeLuxe. The current 26 setup is good and I don't like 29. Rode a 27.5 for a week and loved it but don't want to retire the frame as I love it!

Clearance will also depend on tyre and rim combo. If you've got sufficient clearance, hang on before making the plunge to 650B. There is a new wave of 26 plus tyres on the horizon.
