[RBW] Re: Rambouillet tire clearance

[Eric St. Mary]

That’s a nice looking upgrade.  Once I quit commuting on it the fenders 
came off, and they’re not missed. 

I’ve only replaced the drivetrain on mine. At times I miss the original 9 
speed XTR derailleurs and cranks, and bar-end shifters. The newer 
Ultegra/DA is 10 speed brifter set up is fancy though. I just can’t justify 
the crazy money for a set of the old XTR cranks.

Re: [RBW] Re: Rambouillet tire clearance

[Eric St. Mary]

Thank you all for the helpful input. Sounds like I’ll be shopping for some 
38s. I’m looking forward to seeing how it feels with some fatter tires. 

It has the Shimano long reach brakes Riv sold back then.  I had to deflate 
it he Roly Polys since day 1, even with the brake release, to remove the 
wheels. They do have a ton of clearance otherwise.

 It's not exactly clear whether you want to run the fatter tires with or 
 without fenders.  FWIW, I have a Ram of the same exact time period as 
 yours 
 and I'm running 32mm Panaracers with fenders.  I'd prefer to run 35's, but 
 there's no way they'd fit under the fenders.  Without fenders I'm guessing 
 that you could go up to 37/38's, but it might be tight.  That frame was 
 built with side-pulls as the intended brake, therefore the brake bridge on 
 the rear is a little further down than other models.  And I agree, of all 
 the bikes I've owned over the past 45+ years of "serious" cycling the Ram 
 is the best riding of the bunch.  Wish I would have had it all along.

[RBW] Re: Rambouillet tire clearance

[Eric St. Mary]

Sorry for the confusion. I tossed the fenders in the trash long ago, and 
want to run “slick” tires.

[RBW] Rambouillet tire clearance

[Eric St. Mary]

I’m the original owner of a 2003 orange Rambouillet. It has always worn 
Roly Poly tires, but my stock has ran out.  It hasn’t worn fenders in over 
a decade, and I want to run some bigger tires. I threw my wife’s 700x37 WTB 
All Terrains on it and they cleared. I just want to run fatter road tires 
on it. What can reliably fit 700x38 or 40s in one of the various Panaracer 
makes?


FWIW This bike rides like a silky dream. Ive went through 30+ other bikes 
over the years, and this one remains. It is a beauty. 


Regards,

Eric
