What are peoples experiences? I reckon one would make a good "roughstuff" bike. Not a full on CX racer of course. Possible potential for a disc conversion.
Any comments on tyre width issues?

I have a Kaff and a Pompino. They're essentially the same, with gear hanger and cable braze-ons on the Kaff. I have my Pompino set up with a front disc and Maxxis Larsen Mimo CX 700x35c tyres. Previously using Conti Twister 700x32c.

There's pretty good clearance (I wouldn't go bigger than 35 though) and it's an absolute blast. Highly recommended!

Cheers, al.
