If anyone is running a 2.35 Mezcal on a Hunt Trail Wide v2 (29er), how do they size
up on the 30mm inner rim width?

Looking to get one for the rear of my Silk Road, as may be a bit quicker on road sections than the 2.4 Bonty XR3 on there at the moment (which also comes up a little small)
Cheers

I ran a rear 2.35 Mezcal on my 27.5 XM481 (i30), worked fine, wouldn't wanna go any wider on the rim / narrower on the tyre though.

Anyone running this combo (Hunt trail wide + Mezcal 2.35)? Interested in real world width. Currently have a 2.6 Mescal on the front and think this might squeeze in the back (have tonnes of room at the front so could put a 2.8 there) But if the 2.35 comes out at the stated width, or a touch larger that might be the better option

I went for 2.35 in the end. Very slightly oversized if anything on 30mm inner rim...though not by much. Went up tubeless first time with track pump!
