Hopefully getting one of the low trail forks posted above, that should make 42's a possibility and raise the bb a bit. Currently using a rear rack and panniers but want to experiment with a front rack. Worth a go! Cycle truck is looking good btw!

Cheers, I think your right it would be pretty negligible. Overthinking a bit.
Interesting low trail 650b Pacer:

Another potential dibs. PM sent...

Looking forward to seeing more of this, it's going to be a fine cycletruck! ;)

Converting my Surly Pacer to 650b (I'm bored...) Looks like it will fit a 38 in the front and a 42 in the rear. Any negatives (other than aesthetic) to having a bigger tyre in the back? Having the 42 would help with bb clearance (the bb drop is 72)

Dibs, I'll PM you.

Is this still for sale?

Finally converted my Surly Pacer to 650b and low trail. Many thanks to @Alb for the Masi fork.
Only ridden a 100 miles or so, but all good so far - it still rides like a bike, just a bit cushier and with more 'precise' steering.
Now thinking of getting a front rack and making a rando style bag for it. Looking at Nitto M-18 or the VO Randonneur Rack with p-clips; does anyone have any recommendations?
