Why did he do that?! Watch Will explain the possible advantages of a mullet bike and walk you through three different ways you could convert your bike to a mullet setup…

How have you modified your bike? 👇
I’ve “mulleted” my Remedy 9.8 (27”) one year ago: best decision ever. Almost same performance when going uphill but man, when goin’ downhill…😈 More stable, much better in rock gardens and roots and same spicy jumping. Better investment ever!
I had a mullet Remedy 9.8 too! Cracking bike that. I was also running a shortened DHX2 (I spun the body down in the lathe to take it from a 200x57mm to a 190x57mm) awesome setup!
How long fork travel did you set?
I have a carbon nomad 2014 26"and im convinced that i should mulletize it even more so after i saw the video.
I have a stock 27.5 trail bike and "I think it lacks a something special",then my friend suggested that I should try a mullet set up on my trail bike since then a try mullet and it was so something that i can't explain when ripping the trails and it was so awesome...😎😎😎
Pleased to hear it! Glad you're enjoying the mullet life 🤘
@@willsoffe yeah the feeling is smooth and playful on trails even when cornering it's so just ahhh so good...
Will try it on my next bike
Just bought a specialized Status frame. Set up to be a mullet from the factory.
Cracking bikes them, great for bike parks 🙌

Running a custom 96r for a long time. The untold benefit is the back wheel tucked up a bit for better traction and lower center of gravity . Rails better .
Sounds like a super-mullet setup 29/26: Wild!!!
What did you end up at for head angle after the fox 40?
i have a orbea rise m20 2023... i would like to go mullet... i know i need to change the rear shock, but could i keep the forks???
Good day
I have just brought a 26" L full sus frame.
I want to build a mullet setup.
I was thinking of getting a 27.5" front fork, but after seeing that you managed to fit a 27.5" wheel on a 26" fork, is that the best front fork idea or whats your recommendation since you've ridden that setup for a while now?
i have 27. 5 frame with 160mm fork travel, i dont know the rear shock travel it just said 216x64, is it ok to mullet 29 front with added 10mm more travel 170mm?
Next up: Micro Mullet 26/24 setup.
Well keen for this! A Remy Morton style chainless build with 26/24 is on my wish-list for sure!

@@bikeradar In the meantime, how would you describe the difference between a 79er mullet and a 67er mullet especially given similar suspension travel such as the Cannondale Habit and Enduro SX?
I have an xc bike build but I ride it aggressively, could I still use the mullet set up?
You have great flow style
Thanks David, really appreciate the compliment 🙌

How about on XC hard tail frame? 27.5 or 26er
I´d absolutely love to mullet my current bike. I currently run a 2020 giant reign 29 and on paper with the calculations the geo in terms of reach, head angle and stack would be exactly what I love. So the only downside would be that the seattube angle would be at 75.4 and the BB height would be at 332.44. Seat angle would be fine like that, just not optimal. The BB at 332.44 would be the biggest downside. I had a downhiller with a 339 BB height before and it was problematic sometimes however I do run a bit shorter cranks on the giant so according to calculations it would be fine. Anyone have some advice or knowledge if it would work?
Just do it.
I dont think the suspension kinematic work well by the overstroked cannondale
this week on bike radar, a guy goes on about how great his bike set ups are and why you should try a similar set up on yours...lolz
