700x40 clearance. Sorry, not the best pic but you get the idea.
Looking at that, I’ve still got bags of room in there. Theses might be fairly svelte 40s (I’ll get the callipers out), but I’d be interested to try something bigger at 700
-
I reckon I could just about fit 700x42 in the frame - definitely hoping to be able to chunk it up a bit more, but unless I want to buy a more suitable frame, i think I need to resign myself to compromise :-)
-
I’ve definitely found myself wanting a bit more knobble sometimes. My ride the other night had me spinning like a paddle steamer through slippery mud with nowhere to put a foot down, thinking I was very much at the limits of my current tyres. Was pretty jealous of my mate with his knobbly 650x2.1 tyres!
-
Nice - good info. I'm basically after something as knobbly as I can get. I realise it's probably not the frame for this but im just wondering if getting rid of the mtb is viable
-
Oh, I thought they were best known for action figures

Sorry, I keep going to where my bikes are and forgetting to get a photo! Will do at some point.
Pretty generous clearances at all the important areas with 700x40. I'm not sure how these (On One Gravelroads) stack up against other 40s though.47mm seems to be the consensus for 650b in CDFs. I'd be interested to see how 47mm WTB Senderos looked in the frame.

I don't get it

What's the chunkiest tyre I can get in a CDF frame? I've currently got 700x40mm but I'm toying with the idea of selling my hardtail, handing over all off-road duties to the CDF and buying a 27.5/650 wheel set with some knobblier tyres for rough stuff.
-
I'm currently thinking of selling my hardtail due to using my CDF more and more for all off-road duties. Would be using proceeds to get a 650 wheel set and some chunkier tyres than my current 700x40, so would be interested to hear your ongoing reports!
what tyres are they in the photo?
