No I can't. I never ran knobbies + fenders on my 650B Hilsen. I ran Rock and Roads without fenders and that worked very well. I don't know of a 35-38mm 650B knobby Bill Lindsay El Cerrito, CA On Friday, November 16, 2018 at 3:36:08 PM UTC-8, Call Me Jay wrote: > > Thanks! Can you recommend a

Thanks! Can you recommend a tire with a bit of tread that might fit under the fenders? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rbw-owners-bunch+unsu

It's not clear who in this 2014 thread you were directing your question at. It definitely wasn't aimed at meso I'll answer! :) My sense is that it will "fit" in the sense that it can be installed and the wheels can be spun without rubbing. It will not fit in the sense that there will be w

Any sense if the Knard would fit under SKS Longboards on a 650b Waterford era Homer? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to rbw-owners-bunch+unsubs

I'm more inclined to agree with General Chen about getting the bike nice 'n dirty. The minute I have a have too nice of a bike to do a ride I'm inclined to do is the minute I'd have to get rid of it! That said, the Hilsen is a super nice bike. Its a nicer bike than I've ever owned or may ever

That's too nice of a bike for Gravel Grovel. I did that race twice and enjoyed it. I'm not doing it this year. On Thursday, October 30, 2014 11:05:33 AM UTC-4, Avery Wilson wrote: > > For anyone who loves seeing fat knobbies on a roadish bike, here you go! > > https://flic.kr/p/pSvngY > > 61cm

I'm riding a Handsome Devil. It's basically an XO-1 up-sized to 700c wheels, according to the guys who designed it. I actually wish it had even more clearance but I think they designed it as an all-rounder that leans toward more urban riding so the clearance is adequate but not huge. On

Fantastic! I love my QuickBeam with MSO's. It handles a lot more than I'd have thought practicable before getting it. Enjoy the ride! With abandon, Patrick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and

Yep, I'll be riding the grip kings in the race. I drilled em and pinned em, so I have no problem putting power down and not slipping off the pedals. Also the main reason I chose the Surly tires is because I work a few hours a week at the local bike shop 5 blocks from my house, and bike shop employ

Be sure and report back on how the tires do in the race. I've got the same rims and the Knard 41 is near the top of my list if I ever start doing more gravel/dirt riding. Fortunately, my frame has plenty of clearance for a true 41mm tire (or even a bit more). On Thursday, October 30, 201
