The copy on the page where these are for sale ( https://www.compasscycle.com/shop/26-inch/compass-26-x-2-3-rat-trap-pass/) contains the conflicting measurement info:
Compass 26″ x 2.3″ Rat Trap Pass ... The Rat Trap Pass (26″ x 54mm) I also recall that actual measured width was reported to be closer to 50mm. I ordered up a pair to see if they'll fit on my Handsome XOXO, which has handled 2.1" semi-knobbies with a bit of wiggle room. If they don't fit my 10-year old is going to have the fanciest tires in the 'hood.... -Jeff Silver Spring, MD On Fri, Aug 28, 2015 at 11:14 AM, Philip Kim <philipw...@gmail.com> wrote: > Is this a typo?
