Chinese Carbon MTB > 29+ & 27+

CS-FS27 vs CS-FS29, same geometry?

<< < (2/2)

ChrisCarbon:
I dont know so much about geometry etc, but if the frames have the exact same geometry, it should be possible to put the same travel forks on both frames?

Or am I missing something?

You got some pictures of your build somewhere, or could you post some here? Cheers

I've been meaning to take some more recent pics, but here's an early one before I swapped out shocks, and moved to an eagle drivetrain.



EDIT:

I have attached a pic of how the bike sits now.  Sorry about the lame backdrop, seems every other photo op from this weekend was ruined by photobombers.

Huh?

Cannondale, Orbea, Scott, Kona, Yeti and Specialized and half a dozen other manufacturers use this design for their low (100-120) travel bikes.
