I love the way the QB handles with big tires. They change the gearing and slow down acceleration compared to a 28mm tire, but it's a fantastic bike offroad, on gravel and just around town with fatties. Philip www.biketinker.com http://problemsolversbike.com/blog/ On Wednesday, September 12,

My 60cm with a 36mm Kenda Kwick on the back and a 41mm Schwalbe Marathon on the front measures 85.4 standover at the center of the tube. Fender note: the 41mm tire buzzes under a 52mm V-O Zeppelin fender. 38s fit fine. Philip www.biketinker.com http://problemsolversbike.com/blog/ On Wednesday

I've had Big Apple 50s on my QB, and now I run Marathon Supreme 40s. Both handle fine. I switched because the BA's, albeit incredibly comfortable, were slower than I wanted. The MS 40s are a great fit for the QB and quick enough for my purposes. jim m wc ca On Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 5:42 PM, ilter

Dear group, Any ideas how Quickbeam handles with wide tires, say 37mm & up? I have been toying with the idea of a 2-speed commuter (with a double crank & single cog, like featured in Rivendelll Reader) with wide 650b tires. And then came David`s Quickbeam :) Thanks! ilter On Thursday, Sep
