Re: [RBW] Re: Rock N Roads w/ Fenders on 51cm Sam Hillborne?
Huzzah! They fit. Probably would not have worked with metal fenders but sks p50s clearances are tight so I have to bend some stuff. But it looks pretty good. Will post pictures once I decide on albatross vs noodles. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Quick update, set up SKS P50 fenders with 650bx42 Paselas, while waiting for the RnR's to come in. Looks like there's more fender room. About 8mm or so. I'll be able to fit P55's and maybe even P60's to give more lateral clearance. The vertical clearance might get in the way though. In the meantime, trying to decide if I should go Nitto RM-013 or AlbatrossHave both cockpits ready to go. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Re: Rock N Roads w/ Fenders on 51cm Sam Hillborne?
Isn't the Hillborne outstanding? I was getting my wheel worked on at the Riv-unawareLBS yesterday, and the Hillborne was there, and the guys there were very approving that I could swap between 38 Compasses and 45 Smart Sam knobbies and basically use my sidepull bike as a mountain bike. -Original Message- From: Philip Kim <philipw...@gmail.com>Sent: Jun 24, 2015 7:44 AM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: [RBW] Re: Rock N Roads w/ Fenders on 51cm Sam Hillborne?

My 650B Saluki has similar clearances to a Sam and RnRs were too close for comfort (at the chainstays) even without fenders.

I saw the black and cream HIllborne on the Riv blug, but I think those were 700wheels. Not sure if it would be different with the 650b model or if I'd have to get creative. Thanks!

[RBW] Re: Rock N Roads w/ Fenders on 51cm Sam Hillborne?
Yep, I saw how they did it. But since it was 700c bike, I didn't know how much it applied to 650b. Not sure if there were different actual clearances. Well, I just ordered the Rock N Roads and think I'll take a chance. On Tuesday, June 23, 2015 at 2:54:13 PM UTC-4, Surlyprof wrote: Read that blug post carefully.
