Tim, thanks for the confirmation! I would be using knobbies for an upcoming trip. My hope would be to use the Rene Herse Manastash tires, which purportedly are 44mm wide on the Dyad rim width. Alternatively, I could use the Hurricanes at 42mm. All things equal I’d rather get the fatter meats in there (I do realize I will need to deflate tires to remove).
Anyone out there use the Hurricane Ridge or Manastash successfully on an older Sam frame? > On Jun 18, 2024, at 9:33 AM, Tim Bantham <tba...@gmail.com> wrote: > > John, my Sam is a 2017 model designed around side pulls.
