Hi, decided to have a go at a cheap 2nd hand build, but discovered an early problem (other than knowing Bugger all about building bikes)

does anyone know if a 2011 steel voodoo wanga frame can take 120mm forks or if it's 100 only?

    hi, follow up to my earlier post, been offered some 130mm revs and am wondering if
    a) they'll fit without ruining the geometry (i think i know the answer here)
    b) they can be spacered down to 120mm?

    cheers for any help!

    The specs list the bike as coming with a 140mm fork .

    Yes that bike on the site does come with 140mm, but thats not the same frame as his, that one is aluminium, his is the older steel frame, have you tried ringing / emailing voodoo?

    Also, which Revs are they? dual air? coil? u-turn?

    Also, never mind about the forks, several people have already answered you on STW
