If you are experimenting with 29ers for a semifatbike, you don’t have to worry about unfavourable geometry changes with them.
I’ve measured some tyres.
Racing Ralph and Panaracer Rampage come in at 59-62mm on Kris Holm 47mm rims depending on pressure. RR marginally wider, measurement made on the casing. Tread presents a squarer aspect on this rim, and diameter is about 5mm less than on the Salsa rim.
On a Salsa Delgado 29er rim (30mm) the RR is 61mm at 30psi. A Duro 26×3″ on a 40mm rim is 72mm – haven’t tried it on anything narrower.
Although the 29ers are narrower tyres, the contact area may approach the size of a 3″ Duro because they will be longer. (I haven’t done an ink impression yet.) They are much lighter. However I would be more confident about running the Duro at lower pressures.
