I am curious if you can make this happen. Mathematically, it shouldn't be possible to use the same spoke length for a wheel with a bigger ERD using the same cross pattern as on your 20".
Let us know if you get this done.

Pretty sure he's talking about using the spokes from the 22" wheels. Just swapping the hub with the Profile hub.

The 22" test bike has a 25/9 on it and it feels similar to a 27/9 on a 20". Another one was built with a 27/9 and that gear felt great too. The 22" wheels also have a 9T driver.
@ss4oLe:
25/9 was way too hard on that bike. I'd rather see a ten tooth driver. But, I'd also just rather get rims and build them up myself.

I will be reusing the spokes. I went to the trails after work today so I haven't gotten the measurements yet.
