29er fork on 27.5 frame

Likes Dirt
Any one tried this? Keeping wheel size 6 fiddy b.
How much would the 51mm offset affect handling? I have a spare fork so it would save me 1000 bucks.
Any pros?
What would the cons be?

Cheers

She fid, he fid, I fidn't
i did it on a xc frame, i don't notice any diference, it must have a sml impact on hadling, but im guessing its sml enough to not change the handling significantly

Cons: Typically less travel for the same axle-to-crown dimension. Or same travel will bring the front of the bike up more and slacken the head angle.

A bit slacker h.a. is a compromise I can live with.
Thanks for the input peeps
