Hi 

 

Can i put a rockshox yari 160mm travel on a Yeti SB95C the bike orginal came out with a 140mm travel front shock.

 

thanks

Yes, do it. Richie Rude runs a 170mm fork in his sb5c which also comes stock with a 140mm fork. Might help a bit wierd with the BB about 10mm higher, but I'm sure it will shred on the downs.

Just check if the frame can take the fork , remember Richie doesn't have to worry about A warranty claim if his headtube snaps

The extra 20mm changes the leverage on the head tube and angle of force so slightly. If you're going to run the longer fork + angled headset bearings, then that might be a bit risky.
