Hello,
Does anyone know if there’s any boost frames out there that will fit a 27.5 x 3.5 tires? I can’t seem to find anything. I have a Boost Fork that max out will fit a 27.5 x 3.5 (without mod) so I’m looking for a boost frame that will fit the same tire size.
Is there such thing without buying a fat frame?
Thanks.

You aren’t specifying if hardtail or not. Do you have wide enough rims?
My wife had a Diamondback Rely Trail and it came with 27.5×3.5. The men’s bike is called the Mason. The Mason is a name that has been used for a long time though so you have to make sure you get the right year.

Thanks for the rgt555reply.
<p style=”text-align: left;”>The tire fits fine on a 50 mm wheel and it fits onto the boost fork okay. So I’m just looking for a hardtail boost frame that will fit the same tire, preferably carbon frame.</p>
According to the frame listings i’ve seen they only fit up to 3.0 tires.

Is that without any mods to the frame, as in grinding down frame material?
