Hi, I have had that same question for some time now. My concern is, if the increase in travel and headtube angle will unbalance the overall performance of the bike.

Cheers

I had one setup that same way. It was one of my favorite bikes. It makes for a super fun bike that has geometry similar to a stumpjumper evo or an enduro. Super fun! Really stable at high speeds.
