I’ve used lots of largish volume tyres, 2.25 high rollers and 2.35 pannys but bloody Nora the 2.2 rubber queens are big. So how much clearance is enough?

I think Continental are pretty much spot on with the width measurements for Rubber Queens – they are very tall though.

this wide

Is that the new black chilli compound?

I measured my 2.4s, and controversially they measured 2.4 inches across.

Ok , how tall are they!!!

So how much clearance is enough?

If you can fit a piece of paper in the gap, it will be fine. Promise.

That could possibly wear your frame away 😀

That’s a mighty tight rubber queen there………. 😯
