Well if you add a longer travel fork it will slack your head tube angle. For instance..cghornets20 said:
Say your current fork has 3" travel and the bike has a 71* HA. If you add a 5" travel fork it would slack your HA to about 69*or close to it. Which for DH/FR/DJ is better than 71*.
What bike and fork are you currently using?

You can buy an anglemeter at most hardware stores, they have a flat edge with a magnet on them, and a weighted needle inside the dial.
