I think the new Marathon Extreme in a 700x40 would be the cat's pajama's. I wonder how big a tire can be squeezed in the Hunqua? I've been eyeing the Kenda Karma in a 29 x 1.9 for my Hillborne. which would probably be the biggest I could use. and watching that video makes me want to go riding. M

My PBH is 89 and was told a 58 is right. Which is what I ordered. Probably could straddle a 62, but it would feel huge. (A comparison, once tried a 62 Quickbeam and the reach was way long. Don't believe the bike had an abnormal stem or anything.) Had been contemplating tires. Maybe those Marat

Marty That seems to make sense. It's just that the Hunqasizing chart has your 92 PBH on the small end of the 62 range and Jay's 90 (if that is right) outside of that range. It makes me think that my 87 PBH could work on a 58, but I can't envision me and Keven riding the same size of anything. M

Didn't show him standing over the frame, but there was a scene of him stopped in the saddle. It looked right to me. I'm a 92, and they concurred that a 62 would be right for me when I called to order one. (I usually ride a 64) There is some overlap shown on the fit chart, but I couldn't see myself

Answered it myselfkind of. Jay rides a 63cm AHH. So he's probably about a 90. So that 62 should have been too big. Right? Maybe I need to watch the video again. On Mar 11, 2:23 pm, William wrote: > Looked great.  What is Jay's PBH?  That 62 Hunqa seemed to fit him > just fine. > > On Mar
