My personal suggestion for any new Rivendell mountain bike is that it accommodate 3" wide 650B tires, or at least, 3" wide 26" (559) tires. Or, that it be built for 65 mm 700C tires. Fat and tall really does make a difference on soft surfaces, and on high-frequency, low-amplitude bumps (at least, if you keep the tire at appropriately low pressures). 2 inches just isn't fat enough.
Aside: Curious: has anyone here had the opportunity to personally compare 584 X 70 with 622 X 60 in sand? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
