Last Saturday was work on the bikes day out in the garage. Changed up the bars on the SO from mustache to albatross, and changed the noodles to mustache bars on the Roadeo. Also got some marathon supreme 40's from Riv to put on the SO. As I was starting to put on the rear of the SO I'm looking over at the Roadeo....clearance for fatties? Riv says 35 is max for Roadeo, the supremes measure closer to 37.5, I gotta try. Take off the rear wheel and put on the new tire, fit it back in and I cant believe it fits. No room for fender but it clears chain stays and brake. Put the front one on and I am laughing in delight, the Roadeo is transformed into a beast! Took it out for a quick mixted bike path, road, and dirt trail ride, and tickled with delight on how versatile these bikes that Grant designs are. I will go back to JB's on the Roadeo so I can fender it up for winter, and put the supremes on the SO. They are a nice tire. Really shocked they fit on the Rodeo.
