Holy Moly, a Paul Flatbed? Sorry for the semi-zombie revival, and thread drift and all that, but how'd that Flatbed work for you, Jim? I've had one forever, trot it out now and then, find it always cool, but kinda floppy. Paul Brodek Hillsdale, NJ USA On Sunday, March 28, 2021 at 11:03:46 PM

Like John G I maxed out my orange QB with 700x45 Specialized Fatboys shortly before I sold it. Here's a set of pictures I took for the buyer showing the clearance: https://flic.kr/s/aHskJEmRH3 It looks like chainstay clearance was the limiting factor. If I remember correctly these measured a

The largest I've confidently fit on my orange 56 were Soma Cazadero 42s, Dyad rims, wheel around the back-middle of the dropouts. I never tried any wider, as the chainstay clearance looks like the max for my piece of mind. (I like riding it on rougher stuff than paved stuff, so a hairline
