I’m working on a half fat bike project at the moment, Fat tyre up front.

Any of you fat tyre owner know what the minimum size rim I could use a Larry tyre on, I.e will it work on a 47mm trials rim???

Cheers

Yes, obviously you don’t get the full effect but it will work.

What’s the deal with that? ^^

With which bit in particular?

What’s the point in the massive front tyre if you can’t get any grip in soft/sandy stuff at the rear?

The fat front tyre is used in the snow … it compacts the snow down slightly and gives the rear something to run on. Fat front also allows you to steer the thing in the snow.

I like the look of that SS, is what i’m planning to do, I take it thats a Salsa enabler fork?

Yea it’s an Enabler fork … lovely bit of kit it is.

Ride and Smile 🙂

I run one on a 50mm rim, won’t in quite as low but the narrower profile is needed for SC32s.

I didn’t like super low pressures anyway, too squirmy

is that a 29″ at the back?
