Hey guys/girls

Any owners of a 23 SX that changed the DC to an SC fork ?.

My technical knowledge isnt great so what is the tech i need to know swapping to lets say a 170mm SC fork to keep it standard geometry.
Is it axle to crown length.?

Came from a 2011 Glory(which i absolutely loved) to a 2021 FRS which is also great .
I think i bought it more thinking i need the travel but to be honest i think it was mainly for the look of the DH bike. Tried a 2019 sx and loved it before i bought the FRS.

My thoughts were to get a 2023 SX swap the 190mm 40 to a 170mm zeb/38.

Making it 170/165 travel.

Hope all of the rambling makes sense.

/Cheers

You will just need to replace the lower headset cup, and bearing (and crown race to go on the new fork) to accommodate the tapered steerer tube of a SC fork.
