Was going to get one of these to freshen up an old but loved 29er Ti hardtail. Instead (as I've the part already) I slapped a 27.5 in the back end a la Maes and my god it's like a new bike - so much fun , manuals easier, corners better drops BB slackens front ...
Wasn't a fat tyre like ebikes do either just a regular Maxxis 2.4
Please do a test in the future switching out some rears.
Might still go for Works on front but this was an easier switch around and has to be more fun !
