Will 27.5" wheels fit on a 26" mountain bike?? (khs dj 100)

I found these wheels at my local swap meet .. At first they where for a different bike but I was wondering if they would fit my Dj Soni decided to try it

[@jesusortiz9636]

Great info thanks mate!

[@yardsalecycles]

No problem man glad ibwas able to help

[@ElMuzhighz]

Love the hair flick at the start! First impression won my heart hahaa😂👊
However, I was searching for something else I want to fit a 26 inch tube on a 27.5 inch rim. Just because I have two brand-new 26inch tubes and want to ride my racer lol

[@yardsalecycles]

I would say yes it should work.. you are going to stretch the tube over the rim but other then that there should be no issue

[@andrewbell2749]

Awesome

[@yardsalecycles]

Thanks man

[@BerserkerNick]

When bigger wheels fit it makes the ride super nimble. I put 26er on a 24 inch not too long ago and it made for an awesome ride

[@yardsalecycles]

I was thinking of doing that with my 24" haro ... how did you get the breaks to reach??

[@BerserkerNick]

@yardsalecycles got lucky and it had disc break mounts, was the green and black Haro mtb I built up awhile back. I think you can make cantilever style work if you have a post mount frame

[@GamingSins]

should of done a before and after on the weight on it

[@yardsalecycles]

Ya but couldn't find the scale at the moment

[@shady1468]

Great video bro, I got a 20 inch frame, 26 inch wheel kona fire mountain, and want to know if 27.5s fit, so may try it lol

[@yardsalecycles]

Always worth a try I've been able to fir 27.5 on a few different 26" frames .

[@TheCaptainsCog]

Those are GT Aggressor Pro Wheels man!

[@yardsalecycles]

They GT mine now lol .. whent out for a small ride and big difference glad I pick them up

[@rolandonunez6887]

Can you do the same on 26 inch beach cruiser frame?

I did it on this one

[@tinpotocic8654]

What about the fork bottoming out and hitting the wheel?

[@yardsalecycles]

The top of the fork crown was hi enough so even if I bottom out I will be ok .... might have an issue on a different fork or wider tires

[@armanharith13]

can i use all 26 things onmy new 27.5 frame?

[@yardsalecycles]

Most parts should be able to fit . The biggest issue might be the brakes, especially if they are rim brakes. As long as the BB thread is the same, it should be no problem, and check the bearing size on the headset

[@armanharith13]

@@yardsalecycles i used disc brake
on my 26....i wish it will fit and only a lil things needed to be changed

[@yardsalecycles]

@armanharith13 also noticed that the 26" will lower the cranks so the peadles might hit more often

[@garypierson6455]

I would lose the stickers

[@yardsalecycles]

Ya I was thinking the same the green don't really go with this build
