Hi, wondering if there is any impact to alignment with the different forks.

I've fitted pk forks to a smallframe and there's no issues with alignment but you do need to deal with a higher front end. Sip do sell shortened forks (expensive) but a simple way is to add a spacer on the rear shock to raise the back end, but you may need to extend the stand. I have some pictures if needed.

Hey,
thanks for the offer. I have decided to go the relatively expensive route and get a PX fork modified. When its all complete I will post picks, take measurements, review the handling etc..
