[RBW] Re: Mini Moto Max Tire

[CoalTrain]

Thanks for the follow up on the tire size. Eric, it's actually a British 
green Brooks but 10 years of butt sweat has taken its toll.

 Hi RBW! I've thrown some bits on the Platypus and so far really love 
 this thing. The ride is about the same as the Cheviot I owned but seems a 
 little sportier since I'm using wavie bars instead of albatross. I need to 
 get a proper set of shoes and am curious for those running Mini Motos with 
 a 700c wheel what the largest size they've been able to squeeze in without 
 fenders?

I couldn't fit a 48 with mini motos on the crust canti-bolt. I'd guess 
45ish is the max depending on your bike.

I just tried to put Mini Motos on my Appaloosa with 50mm Big Apple tires 
and SKS fenders. It was not even close to fitting. I am sticking with 
cantilevers on it for now because I don't want to take the fenders off. I 
was kind of disappointed.

Maybe if I step down to 45mm tires and no fenders, the brakes will work.

Oh, and yeah, nice looking Platypus there. I love the black B17 special 
with the limeolive paint :)

Will recently posted some pictures of a Platypus with Mini Motos 
 and 44mm Rene 
Herse tires. This is pretty close as far as clearance, Clarence!

Nice lookin bike; looks fun to ride. You definitely need some bigger tires 
though! I once tossed some Mini Motos on my Appaloosa with 50cm Cazaderos. 
There was about 2mm between the brake wire and the tire. I was not cool 
with that. Maybe a 48mm slick would be ok, but I'd guess that's about the 
limit.
