My old Bianchi SASS on 27.5s

Some pics of my 17.5" Bianchi SASS on 27.5" wheels and tires. 26 is alright and 29ers feel too big- I think this is perfect. I built the wheels- XT 756es to DT 533d rims, with Hutchinson Cobra tires (2.25"). Currently, the rear is still QR with bmx axle retainers but I have a threaded axle and nuts to install to it when I get around to it, Also, I didn't have enough freehub/singlespeed spacers so I just stuck a bunch of spare cogs on the hub. I'll post some closeups someday when it's not embarrassing to look at. With any luck I'll have time to take it to dirt this weekend. I'll have to abuse it a bit and see if I can safely take another link out of the chain!

Hope you never see mud with the clearance (or lack of it) on the front
