Mulletingva 29er decoy

[onehundredthidiot]

Hi all, I'm going round in circles on my first ebike. Narrowed it down to 3 or 4. Question is if I go for the full 29 decoy. If I use a 650b rear wheel to mullet it am I getting a mx version head angle? I know the core 3 versions have different forks and shock but I'm not overly concerned by that.

To mullet a Decoy 29er, the head angle would slacken almost a degree. It would be close but not the same as a Decoy MX. Be aware the rear frames are different between the 29er and the MX and thus the aleady very low BB height on the 29er well be even lower. Expect lots of pedal strikes. Best to get a Decoy MX if you want the head angle. I have the MX version and it's a great bike that's incredibly fun.

Cheers for that. Got an offer on another bike I found hard to refuse. So...
