Doug, I'm sure someone will chime in with bigger tires than me, but I have a 58cm Appaloosa with 700x50c Big Bens under SKS fenders. The tires measure 47mm on Alex DM18 rims. Plenty of clearance under the fenders, and I'm guessing I could go 55mm. The tightest spot appears to be at the chainstay, but I definitely have room to go bigger than my Big Bens. I'm thinking about trying a set of Antelope Hills.
I'm also curious how big people have gone with the Appaloosa. Also, I think the new Atlantis has the same tire clearance (the geometry chart says they're the same), so maybe Atlantis owner experiences would be helpful too?
