Definitely did. I can barely fit 2.15s on my first gen Bomba.

I am fairly sure the clearance increased with the second generation of

I was joking, of course, but there was murmuring in the early Bombadil
days about the possibility of a disc brake option... I have no recollection
about who was doing the murmuring.

No offense, Jim, but I would be very surprised.
Light-and-limber Bomba looks great.

Riv! Wheel size changes will be trivial!

Haven't measured the change in the BB height; will do so and report back.
FWIW, the front tire is labeled as a 700c-32 but measures 33, the rear is
labeled 700c-35 but measures 34. The diameter difference of the wheel size
change is 19mm, so we could get all mathy and calculate it (the Tour R
Nice work, as usual. Do the brakes feel any different?

Very cool! I've been thinking of trying that with my 56 Bomba and the Paul
brakes. Did you measure BB height? I'm just curious for comparison's sake.
And let us know when you try a 23mm road slick on it.
happy trails
