The 27.5 version takes up to a 2.8 inch tire and runs out to 170mm. The 29er chassis is spec at 27.5x3 and 29x2.6 up to 160mm. From personal experience, I can say the 29 chassis will take a 29x2.8 inch and some 29x3 inch tires. The MRP Ribbon is an amazing fork. If you are saying that a 26 x 2.4 has a larger diameter change from 1.95 than 26" to 27.5" diameters, again, if you are talking about mounted tires on rims, that's just not correct. Otherwise a 26 x 2.4 would not be able to fit into many standard 26" forks, and a 27.5 x 2.1 tire often could. Most 26″ fat bikes have 80mm wide rims and they’re great for most people. Riders looking for maximum flotation would need two sets of fat-bike wheels to cover the full gamut from groomed to soft conditions fat-bike fun. In the 27.5 fat-bike world maximum flotation isn’t achieved with a wider rim. 27.5 max-float is achieved with a larger tire. 1. Use the Parts list in the App. If you have a Cannondale bike from model year 2019 and newer, the Parts section of the app should have the info you need: 2. Look at the sidewall of your front tire. You can also look at the sidewall of your front tire for a wheel size and tire width designation. A 26″ wheel uses a rim with a 22inch/559mm diameter. А 29″ wheel relies on a rim with a 24.5inch/622mm diameter. The radius difference between 26″ and 29″ rims is 63mm/6.3cm/2.48inches. Therefore, if a 26″ wheel and a 29″ wheel use the same tire model, the 26″ wheel will result in a 63mm reduction of the bike’s height.

Many manufacturers offer this kind of thing as build options for the same frame. but yeah, squirmy tires are a pressure problem. you can get that at any tire width with the But you have a point - going from a 27-inch wheel with 27x1 1/4 tires to a 700c wheel with 25c tires, I measure a 1cm difference in wheel radius, translating to a tiny 3.2mm difference in trail (w/ a 72 degree head angle). Perhaps the bikes feel more responsive with 700c wheels due to a smaller flywheel effect (moment of inertia) of the lighter The Meta AM 29's overall look is very similar to its 27.5” wheeled counterpart, but a few key revisions were made to optimize it for those bigger wheels. Commencal Meta AM 29 Team. Intended use It's not really a big issue. 700C wheels have a bead-seat diameter of 622mm, for 27" it's 630mm. 8mm difference in diameter is 4mm radius, so if you put 700C wheels on a frame designed for 27" the brake needs to reach 4mm further -- less than 1/4 inch. Often the existing caliper will have that much adjustability, and if not, long-reach brakes There are three even more obscure tire standards also referred to as 26-inch diameter, but none are interchangeable. As a rule, tires marked with fraction sizes, such as 1/2, 3/4, etc., do not interchange with tires marked in decimal sizing, such as 0.5, 0.75, etc. For example, a 26″ x 1-1/2″ tire does not interchange with a 26″ x 1.5 foobajoob. Posted: Feb 10, 2016 at 9:31. Quote. 26" wheels on a 27.5" frame will work fine apart from the slightly lower clearance on BB and crank. But with what you're wanting to do with the fork

can you put 27.5 on a 26
