Can someone help me figure out if i'm on the right tracks here.
Im looking at getting a custom TF dart, as both a road fixed and potentially a travel/cross uses, now try to do 2 bikes with one is possibly silly so kick me out if this is all very stupid
The dart by standard has steep angles 75 st and 74 ht, with a road fork ~365mm axle-crown, cross forks have ~395mm axle-crown, after some googling a 30mm increase in axle-crown would push my angles to 73.5 and 72.5 or thereabouts, which would result in a more offroad/travel geo?
So by swapping forks (and probably some stem/bar adjustment) both would work?
