Although I thought this would be a simple calculation, I'm struggling to figure it out. The below geometry is based on a 150mm travel fork. By how much does your headtube angle decrease if you run a slightly larger 160mm travel fork?

Rule of thumb is 1' every 15mm

BUT the slacker the HA the less affected the bike is. Also, you can run slightly more sag, so realistically you're looking at 7/8mm ish on a 65.5' HA so probably at most half a degree ish
