Hi
I have just brought a new set of revelations air u turn 100mm to 130mm travel for my Trance 3, I have just realized that my current forks Tora 289 are only 100mm travel!
Will the geometry of the bike be effected if I run the fork at its max 130mm travel??.
Maybe I should have asked before buying :oops:
Thanks in advance

It will make the angles slacker, but many riders prefer this bike this way. As long as Giant warranty the frame for 130mm, have a try!0

Thanks Super I will check the warranty.
If running the uturn at 100mm will the geometry stay the same??

If the fork sag is the same, then yes, pretty sure these forks have the same axle-crown length for a given travel.
As is an air fork, you can precisely set up sag.0 -
Cheers, I have emailed Giant regarding the frame warrenty so lets see what they say.
