So as is always best my "project" bike (and i use it as an ongoing change of bits) has another big change. The whole reason i bough the bandshee is that it can be run as a 26" wheel or converted to 27.5" with a change of drop outs. At the time that i bought it had previously bought new top end forks and wheels that would soon but not know be out of date. Finally i have made the change, I have to say i can feel a small difference for the better making it a faster bike   Changes has been: 36 talas 26" forks to fox float 27.5" Mavic sx 26" wheels to mavic enduro xl 27.5" getto 10 speed to 11 speed GX/XO1 At the moment i am still running the 26" dropouts as the shop has not got the 27.5" in stock yet, to be honest the wheels just about fit in so may just keep it like that |

27 specific drop outs will lower the bb a touch - Id have thought - so will probably help with stability and cornering. |
