I'm asking here because I know there are a few Hungarian riders here who might know this. What is the head angle of Magellan Tucana 2004 with 400mm fork and how would the bike feel if I put a 4200mm fork on it?

Thank you

4200mm fork would be ghetto vato stylies... make sure you go with the sissy bar and the 150 gold spokes

72 degrees IIRC.
I think longer forks will be a good choice. (higher bb, and smaller (?) headtube angle)

a friend has 2004 tucana
headangle is standard 71 or 72°
with 420mm fork youll get higher bb but heavier front end.. what fork anyway

why, for example the echo pure fork is very lightweight and is 420 mm

I said not heavier fork, but heavier front end.
With 2cm farther front wheel it is heavier while backhoping
