I have an 84 Trek 620 and have had an 83. The fork crown will only clear a 32 mm tire with fenders. I tried a different fork but found the increased rake and blade length had a negative impact on an otherwise excellent road bike.
I have an Ebisu All Around- 63.5x60.5 - which is an excellent touring / commuting bike. I run VO steel fenders and Avocet 38C (35 actual) cross tires. It does not have mid blade eyelets but I run the M12 rack on it. I am pondering selling it but not yet sure i want to let go of it.
