Re: [RBW] Q: Fitting bigger tires on Sam Hillborne

[Franco Rinaldi]

I have fit Rene herse 48 knobbies on mine.  Franco Rinaldi  c:  646.403.0661  -Pardon any typos, Siri typed this message- On Mar 31, 2026, at 2:14 PM, Will Stratton <wstrat...@gmail.com> wrote: I have put a set of Soma Shikoro 700c x 42 tires on my 2025 54 cm Sam Hillborne, and they feel nice, but I'd like to take this bike on some occasionally choppy mud and gravel around the Hudson Valley (not doing any real mountain biking, I promise). I also miss the feel of the Rene Herse Umtanum Ridge knobby tires that I had been riding on my Clem. Does anyone know if the Sam will fit a set of 700C x 44 Rene Herse Manastash Ridge tires, with their standard casing? Kind of a shot in the dark--mostly wondering about anyone's experience going any bigger than 700c x 42 with their recent Sam Hillbornes.
