I had a later version Todd Kuzma Heron and true 38mm tires wouldn't really 
fit comfortably.  Part of the confusion on those early Riv's were that most 
all the tire manufactures and in particular the Panaracer Pasela were over 
rating their tire width, so a Pasela 35mm was more like 31mm and a 38mm was 
more like 35mm. The early Riv's were based on the size Pasela that would 
fit, not actual tire widths. Later Riv started posting pictures of digital 
calipers with real tire widths and Panaracer relabeled their tires.
