Maybe Larry Mettler or some other fork gurus can chime in here - so here's my question.
Will the axle to crown height of the new 2005 Talas and Vanilla Forks be taller than the previous model years now that they can get up to a full 130mm of travel?
I had a Talas on my Belair for a bit but the short axle to crown height actually steepened my HT angle a bit when I really wanted to keep it the same as it was with the Psylo it replaced or slightly slacker.
I'm now running a Z1 FR on the Belair - but that fork is a heavy sucker - very stiff and burly though - but possibly a tad tall and defintely a lot heavier.
Is there a chart somewhere listing axle to crown heights of various trailbike/freeride forks that I could access?
Still trying to find the right balance up front on my Balfa.
Thanks!
