• Thinking about putting a 700c fork on my build but keeping the 26" wheel. Any issues with that?

  • Higher BB, more stress on HT, slacker HT angle. Not sure why you would want to.

    Clearance? My 26" MTB fork has about twice as much space between the legs as my 700c forks to accommodate fat tyres.

  • That's what I've done with mine. If you got the clearance, no particular issue, but it may lower the BB and straighten (? - can't find the word) the HT and ST angles.
    Which in my case was OK, and the handling feels good and predictable (that was my main worry)
