Indeed and indeed and indeed. I need to upgrade incrementally so that Wifey doesn’t notice that the handlebars went from 685mm to 750mm and the fork from 120mm 32 to a 130mm 34 and the tires from 2.3s to 2.5s and brakes to saints....ahhhhhhh saaaiiiiiinnnnts!I don't see a question mark anywhere in this post.

You are entering corners faster on a 29 vs 26, for sure, especially if it's rough coming in because it's fast and smoother on a 29. So slow down, or get a 29 with more appropriate geometry to your new found big wheel speed. That is all
...all the necessary blingy bits for the bike to sit in the garage in the dark most days.
