I'm chubby-curious 😳

edit- I've just bought some. At £26-odd (with the May 25% off offer) including post it's a cheap experiment!

Interesting.. I couldn't see what the internal /external widths were on the website, do you know?

Zooming the photo, it looks like 36/43mm width.

OP, what hubs are you going to use?

One thing that I guess you've checked is that the forks and stays will take them, I have a 26x2.4 front tyre on at the moment, with a 33mm rim and it's close! Back wheel I think 2.35 would be pushing it.

I've got a generic 20mm through axle hub and a Shimano something-or-other 135x10 rear. There's plenty of room in the frame and loads of space in the forks. At the worst I end up with a pair of cool picture or mirror frames 😆

How are you getting on with the rims? What frame/forks/tyres are you using them with?
