    Have these been discontinued?

    Running rims that won’t take the 2.3 version and looking for a decent tubeless ready tyre that doesn’t break the bank

    Running rims that won’t take the 2.3 version

    So they can take 2.2 but not 2.3 …about a 2.5mm difference? 😕 What rims are they?

    The 2.2’s are now 2.3’s but you’ll be hard pushed to measure much difference, especially between the beads.

    I’m sure it’ll be fine

    Says 1.7 to 2.4 with a 26mm wide rim…sounds alright, I’m running a 2.2 Purg on a Stans 355 rim with no issue and that’s narrower than your rims. As mmel says, reckon it would be fine.

    I believe the new 2.3 is fractionally smaller than the old 2.2!

    Certainly no bigger than the 2.2 Captains I also have.
