pretty sure 2.2 would be as big as you could go before it starts to rub.

I'm using 2.25 schwalbes on mine, they work fine without rubbing.

Banksy, I know you probs won't want to do this but she'd look lush in the GC orange!

Cheers for the advice on the tyres lads, going to order myself a new back one soon, and i agree it would look good in orange, ill keep it in mind for when it needs repainting mate, cheers

So i took the bike for its real decent length ride just now, nothing special just on the back tracks up near mine, about 4 or 5 miles total, bearing in mind it was so dark and my lights were so useless that i couldnt see this bike did extremely well, a few time i hit ditchs, and ruts which i hadnt seen and the bike just sailed through them! shame its hacky now though(the downside to the white frame)

I have 2.3`s on mine and its getting tight!

Ive finally ordered myself some decals so they should be here this week Also im thinking about changing the brakes to disc rather than V, if anyone knows what i would need how hard it is to do etc then please could you let me know,
Thanks

you'd need the almost impossible to find specialised sharkfin.
