Also, on a 52 Clem you would be looking at the 650B offerings. The Hurricane equivalent width would be Pumpkin Ridge, but if you want RH knobby rubber on a Clem 52 I would go with Juniper: https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop/components/tires/650b/650b-x-48-juniper-ridge-tc/ Just be aware the

A 42mm tire is going to be mighty skinny looking on a Clem. On Thursday, September 12, 2019 at 6:43:50 PM UTC-4, John McBurney wrote: > > What about the compass knobby tires? > > > https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop/components/tires/700c/700c-x-42-hurricane-ridge-tc/ > > > If you are worried

What about the compass knobby tires? https://www.renehersecycles.com/shop/components/tires/700c/700c-x-42-hurricane-ridge-tc/ If you are worried about sidewall cuts get the endurance or endurance plus casing. John On Wed, Sep 11, 2019 at 10:51 AM masmojo wrote: > Well, I guess I'm late to

Well, I guess I'm late to the party, but I have a 52 Clementine so I'll throw this out there anywayz, for future reference. I've used a couple "knobby" tires on my Clementine. At first I tried some Kendas (2.3ish Slant six I think?), but while great offroad, they made the Clementine feel

Deacon Patrick, I want to thank you again for the trail suggestions. Our family had a wonderful time on the MUP riding from Breckenridge to Frisco and Lake Dillon and I scouted the Boreas Pass road for a family ride on our next trip to Colorado, which we've already planned for next summer.

Looking at Trails Illustrated maps, Breckenridge falls as a confluence of three maps (108, 109, 104), so there may well be a better local map solution if you don't want to buy $40 of maps. Grin. The advantage of TI's maps is they give enough detail to actually navigate by them, vs. most maps

Check out the Vittoria Mezcal. I had some on a 59 Clem and really liked them. They do come in 27.5 as well as 29. Grippy offroad, but oddly, nicely, quiet on the road due to center tread pattern. And they don't break the bank. See my post about them

Frankly, the joy of riding is in not putting any thought into it at all, otherwise you'e just "going through the motions" like a computer, a machine. Lifeless. Intuition, for lack of a better word, is way more intelligent, ingenious, capable, confident and fun than you could possibly
