Anxiously awaiting delivery of my wife's Betty,and I have had a
similar question about Hetres. Never got an unambiguous answer, but
did discover that Renaissance apparently fitted a Betty with Hetres,
though there was some question about fender fit. I'm playing it by ear
_ ordered the Fatty Rumpkins, nominal 40s, which Keven believes will
handle the SKS fenders fine, though the additional substance of the
Honjos and their like may be a tighter squeeze, we worry. Short of it:
Without fenders, general opinion seems to be yes; with fenders, the
general opinion seems to be a mumbling maybe.
Hope others wil speak to us both more directly about this ...
Trail _ I shouldn't pretend to be the least expert in sorting that
out, but Grant has made an interesting case that trail numbers in
isolation don't mean much in the performance of Riv bikes, and I've
found that seems to be true for my Saluki. Regardless of trail, I
wouldn't have much concern about loading up the front of a Betty, and
have noticed that most buyers do.
