Thanks for all the bananas
That's the kind of thing I should have jumped on.. Hope hubs and DT Swiss XM481 rims.. Someone's getting a lovely wheelset!

I want to call BS. Not tons of clearance with a decent 26 on mine, though year models may have varied.
Especially if you have a phat rim. Thinking back I would have gone up to a 2.5 inch minion on mtx33 but maybe mtx39 rim.



Looking back on some pics, I retract. The almost looks like more clearance on my totem with 2.4 26, than 27.5 lyriks with same 26” tyre.
Ben a while since I've had them next to each other, but the 26 inch lyrics and totems were a very similar axle to crown height. Not sure of that would have an impact.

Totems were a great fork though. I might borrow a modern front wheel and see if it fits in one of my sets to work this out!

Hesitate on any XT gear in the current climate, its gone !

Both XT 11spd and 12spd components are as rare as rocking horse poo :(
A bargain buys thread seems pointless right now. We now need a stuff that's in stock thread. Of course no-one will post anything in it as they will be busy buying remaining stock before someone else finds out about it.

I got a $300 Wiggle voucher from work which is basically fkn useless as there is nothing available.

@Scotty675 found me a XT 12sp derailleur a few weeks back, they are about, just located in small shops.
