Yep...decided not to crimp. Too risky just for a tread pattern. I happily ran my old 37 paselas, some Bontrager marathon-ish style, and Schwalbe delta cruisers all in rough terrain with not too much hassle. It wasnt the extra volume/width I was after but the smooth round profile WITH deep reverse tread that the BG offered. That combo works great on the pavement and even better in the dirt. Especially mid summer when the trails turn to small gravel swimming in 4" of loose powdery dirt.
The RnRs measured out to 45 at the outside of the knobs. That on a 25mm Mavic A319 rim.
