    Surly's 2014 catalog (not sure the years of Krampus Gen1) specs the Krampus with a 100mm width fork so he may just be in luck.

    In luck for what? How does the older 100mm fork help him? I'm confused now.

    I thought this was about him replacing the current rigid fork with an entirely new 120mm fork that fits 29x3" tires. For that, he'll probably want to use a 110mm boost adapter or drop-in axle replacement with his current 15x100mm hubs.

    What I meant was that the Krampus comes with a non-boost fork and specs 29plus size tires already, so his existing wheels may fit a non-boost suspension fork like he originally linked (which tend to be cheaper than boost hence the luck comment)

    I would agree that finding a boost fork and adapting the hubs would be a better way to go though.

    Don't remember who i was talking to on here about my build.....but i have it back from the shop. I swapped out the Enve Carbon rigid front fork for a Rockshox 100mm travel one. The bike is an All-City Log Lady (why they call it that, i have no idea). Here she is.0120201616 2.jpg

    If you need a large frame, probably going to list my green/purple al frame once I make sure the xl carbon frame fits and rides right.

    I also decided that I might as well put in a bling headset while I am at it, so some more purple ano is on the way. SC confirmed the carbon frame green letters are the same green as my existing frame, so everything should color match up nicely too.

    I'm like right in between medium and Large. I'm 5'10". So I could go either way. I'm inclined to go with Large mostly because it feel slike it might fit what i'm used to with my enduro bike. but yeah, post it up here maybe I'll take it or @JuanitoBunito will take it. :D

    That's the standard MSRP listed on Santa Cruz' website for an Al frame.
