Bikes: Working on replacing my stolen Soma Buena Vista Mixte

Finally, getting more clearance really depends on how much trail you have now. Not sure that you want so much rake, but a builder should be able to tell you .

Do you know what your rake is now?
Today my wires are looped around the fork from the hub, the light is mounted on my front porteur rack - on of the stays. I have a shutter precision hub.

Current rake is 45mm.
