Levo Gen 3 If I change fork travel, what’s my headtube angle?

[Gutch]

Ok gurus! I’ve bumped to a 170mm fork from stock 160mm. If I want to retain 64.5, if I just run headset in steeper angle, what would the measurement be?
Thanks

Normally 10mm longer fork slackens 0,5. What bike? Do you have adjustable head set?

Cool, it’s a 22 Expert Levo, has adjustable headset cones and rear end.

It'll be less than 0.5deg once sag is taken into account.
Drop a 5mm spacer from under your stem and don't worry about it.

Ok, thanks.

Yeah as above, at sag your only increasing the height by 7.5mm, and the 0.5 degree per 10mm is so old now, the slacker your head angle is the less the travel lift will affect it. Just get out and enjoy it!!
