David,
Chiming in on your exchange with Steve regarding using Honjos and Hetres on
a Hilsen (the Triple H).
In my opinion, the critical thing that Steve's Saluki had that your bike
does not have is cantilever brakes. The place where you will have the
biggest clearance problem is through

The Lierre really is an excellent tire, every bit as good as the
Hetre, in my opinion.
The Lierre hasn't received much love on the lists, but I like mine just
fine. Some have said the tread siping catches small stones that then

Thanks, Bill. I thought that might be part of the clearance issue.
Wonder if switching to the Dia Comp center pulls would improve the situation

To add to what Grant said: I use 60 mm 700c Berthoud fenders with 60 mm Big
Apples and there are no clearance issues whatsoever—in fact I still spaced
the fenders away from the frame—because the frame has so much tyre
clearance. Having said that, the fenders are only just wide enough to cover

Haven't used them personally, but Berthoud makes 700x60s in stainless steel
(http://www.peterwhitecycles.com/fenders.asp). Note that the 700x50s I had

They’re very high

Steve,
As the Saluki dimensions are similar if not the same as my Homer, should the
Honjos, hammered or fluted work with 42mm Hetres with my 56cm 650B Homer?
Maybe with a bit of trimming?
Thanks.
