Well spotted. It's actually a disc trucker fork in 700c so 390a2c, got it as the fork that I could've had from cotic was mountless. It's 10mm too short so makes the head angle half a degree steeper and drops the BB a bit, still handles nicely though.

Headtube slightly steeper with fork at 45mm rake contributed to a slightly lighter handling, helped with the load.

Ahh that explains a lot then, definitely felt nice even with the massive load. Assuming because the 650b has the same circumference as a smaller 709c tyre that doesn't affect trail at all? Only helps to contribute to the more comfortable ride and better feel.
