Better to buy Slash+ which is designed as Mullet (imo).

I'll just get a Time Machine and go back to December 2019 when I bought my Rail shall I?

Let us know how you get on with mulleting the Rail. 12 months max

 

[Doomanic]

Try 4 years...

The only reason it's back on 29s is that it's now my commuter bike and I'm buggered if I'm buying wheels and tyres for it when I've got a 29er Eddy Current on a wheel in the garage. On the rare occasion it's used off road it gets the 27.5 back on it.

12 months from now. Obviously.

Obviously

Clearly not. I'm not sure what your 12 months is referring to?

12 months from now you'll stay with 29" and not bother any more with the current mullet fad. Obviously.

 

[Doomanic]

Ah, well, as I've already answered that above I'm now not sure why you are so keen to be wrong, but hey ho.

 

[BuckSaw]

I've got a ruler if you guys want to get this over with.

I converted my sons Trek Rail to a Mullet setup
He's only 13 years old and found the larger wheels trickier to handle, so hopefully this helps him a bit.

I also changed the cranks from 165mm to 155mm to reduce pedals strikes and added a new Schwalbe Albert Radial tyre
