Managed to squeeze on some kenda 2.35s for a snowdon trip - stayed on ok... am I likely to die long term ? Guess I am pushing it twith these tyres... did work superbly though !
any opinions welcome
cheers

I used to run 2.35 High Rollers without problem, tubeless too down to around 25psi
I've used 2.25 Advantage without a problem, and they're a huge tyre.
2.4" Advantage was too far (they're whoppers though)
The Mavic website says 2.1, but the sticker on teh side of mine said 2.3- bit odd.
Then o'course there's tyre size randomness. 2.35 Kenda is usually pretty close to 2.35. 2.35 Highrollers, closer to 2.1 than 2.35. I ran 2.35 Bluegrooves and Nevegals on mine and never had any problems.
As for Advantages being huge- 2.4 Advantage is slightly [i]under [/i]the claimed size. Though they're fairly tall. They only look big because we're used to being fibbed to.
Thanks guys - Northwind - thats the same combo I use - come back to a blue groove / nev combi after a few years and I actually like them a lot....

2.4 fat albert no problesm so far
Yeah I reckon the 2.1 Kendas are about right - they're big for they're stated size.
The Blue Groove / Nevegal was my first working combo.
Seen 2.5 dual ply minions on them for a week in the alps.
2.3(?) Swampthing here, no problems.
HR 2.35 and Rubber queen 2.2, fine! ( 30 odd psi)
2.5 minions are good
I've run 2.3 on them before but the tyres roll when cornering hard. Generally stuck to a 2.1
depends on pressure really.
