Ahhhh... just before I posted this, I realized you have a 650B (which is essentially a Saluki in 56). My comments below the line were for a 700C Hilsen. I think you'll find any reference to Saluki clearances would be appropriate.
There is a thread here which chats a bit about Saluki v. Hilsen https://groups.google.com/g/rbw-owners-bunch/c/5JKIpW9dQTA In that thread, you will find reference to a fendered Saluki with 42's. ------ 700C comments ---- I still run Jack Browns (bulky 33 1/3) on mine and there is gobs of room. On this page, you can see Pasela 37's and plenty of space to spare - http://www.cyclofiend.com/rbw/hilsen/index.html Original RR article introducing the 700C Hilsen stated clearance for 40 with fenders. (you'll find a hi-rez archived scan on that page as well). - J On Sunday, June 20, 2021 at 6:20:31 PM UTC-7 gpgun...@aol.com wrote: > Greetings > Can anyone confirm or shed light on the largest tire size one can safely > ride on a Toyo H/Hilsen (56 650B) with fenders.
