I've got a 2.25" Nobby Nic on mine and I've had a 2.25" Smorgasbord in the past. You could probably fit something a bit bigger in there but it would depend on whether you're using a front derailleur.

I'm the same - various 2.2/2.25 tyres.

Lovely frames - a certain je ne said quoi and sprightly, comfy ride that you only notice when getting on another bike.

I loved my Life but ripped the mech hanger/dropout open. Had it reset and did it again. And again.

Checking the photos I ran it on 2.1 tyres (Panaracer Cinders!)

Also had a Soloist but the bottom bracket did my head in. Ended up swapping to an Inbred with slot dropouts.
