I found this info once from the Mavic site, forgot it and now the mavic site seems to have changed.
Does anyone know what the maximum tyre width is please?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
X3.1 Disc I assume?
1.5-2.2"
I have a tweaked team issue version on the NRS and run Fire XC Pro 2.1s. Seem a very good tyre all round and the shape's lovely.
No real need for much bigger on a light(ish) rim, I would imagine.
Is this not the old name for the 819?
I've run 2.5 contis on my X3.1's OK.
I don't see how the weight of the rim defines the width of the tyre needed
Well, I've got X3.1's on two bikes, my SS, which has Bonty CXR 2.2/2.25's on and my Inbred 567, which has had 2.5" Diesels on in the past, and is currently wearing a pair of Bonty ACX 2.35's, all tubeless, with no issues at all. The rims may get replaced with Rhythm's or Dusters, but they're fine at the mo', and have been for the last six years since they were built.
Yes X3.1 UST Disc, thanks everyone sounds like a 2.2 is going to be a safe bet!
you'd be pretty hard pushed to find any rim that couldn't take a 2.2 tyre
seen plenty 819s with 2.5 maxxis DH tyres
I've ran a 2.7 before without any problems.
