One thing the Hetre has done is create a lot of noises and tight clearances for the the 650B denizens whose Kogswells, Ebisus, and Rivendells were spec'd for around 37mm - which was all that was available about 2007.
I agree with Ryan - after riding the Lierres, if you want supple casing and a fast, light ride, just get that tire and save yourself the headache. Hetres are great tires. But they require a lot of frame-design fidgeting with fenders that not even most custom builders can pull off cleanly. Or you get the gaping yaw of the Rawland. Here's the Protovelo with comfortable clearances with Lierres: http://www.flickr.com/photos/25671211@N02/6592022665/in/photostream Hetres were fun, but a royal pain and best abandoned. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
