[RBW] Re: 61cm Ritchey Road Frame/Fork/ Headset
Corwin, It fit 28mm tires with no problem. Those tires mounted on Pacenti Brevet rims were closer to 30mm actual. I was running Dura Ace Dual pivot brakes on it so they limited me on tire size more than the bike. I think you could fit a 32mm with a different brake set. Below are some pictures to give you and idea. https://photos.app.goo.gl/cgUf7LXJVYkpcsEB8 Thanks.

Hi Brian - What are the widest tires this frame will handle?

Wow, that's beautiful. Way under square, which might make it a good candidate for moustache bars. Or a sweet old 130mm Salsa stem. Or just someone with a shorter torso than I have. Lots of good Tom Ritchey content in the old Readers. Good luck with the sale. Philip Sonoma County, Calif.
