Excuse me if this question has been asked before. I didn't find a quick answer so I will ask.

I have a large 5010 V1 with a 130 mm Pike and 68 degree head angle.

If I change the fork to 140 mm, how will this effect the head angle? I know SC says I can go up to 150 mm but they don't directly answer my question.

Thanks for your help.

roughly .5 degrees for every 10mm..... https://bikegeo.muha.cc/

Thanks. That's what I was looking for. I saved the equation you attached so I can enter the correct figures and play around with various changes.

I bumped the fork to 140 mm and though the raw numbers might not indicate a large change in the way the bike rides, I was pleasantly surprised at how much better the V1 5010 feels. It was $126 well spent.
