Stilus v2 - Wheel size compatability

[jackrussell]

Hi, Does anyone who has the current Stylus with 27.5" wheels front and rear know if it will take 29" wheels, particularly the front with the current fork that it comes with?
I see the new v3 comes with 29" which I'd prefer but does anyone have any idea when they may be in stock at Decathlon?
Cheers

Yes, the V1 and V2 fork (35 Gold RL 27.5") will take 29" wheel, but only with a tyre up to 2.1" and this makes no sense imo.

Hi, calling all Stilus owners.

My rear thru axle has cracked, I know it’s 12 x 148 but anyone know the overall length required? Is it 178 or 180mm.

Regards
Del

Hey @Tallguy888 you need 178mm axle length, thread size M12, thread pitch: 1.5 mm, thread length: 18mm. I could not find the same as the original one (with a lever), but hex key (stealth style) axles are available at Decathlon, you can pick aluminium or steel one (from E-ST900, it uses the same size). For some reason these axles cannot be found in UK website (while available in PL or FR websites). Product codes are: 8512593 (alu), 8643417 (steel).
