I'm trying to figure this out. I came across this thread (see link) that a guy did, which is very much the same stretch and drop that I think I want to do.

I too will be running stock wheels/forks. with a 4'' stretch and a 2'' drop. He measured his ground clearance to be 4.25'' with the hardtail.
Now I plan on doing that too most likely. However I want to bring the rake out to 38 degrees. Lets say I use the stock forks with the stock wheels (1980).
How drastically does that change the ground clearance? or.....is it not that noticeable. Surely the ground clearance will be effected, the question is by how much?
