Hi Tim, I have a '98 Riv Road that originally had 105 brakes and now has Tektro 539's ( http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/brsbm59.htm ) which allow me to fit the lovely Grand Bois Cypres ( http://www.compasscycle.com/tires_gb_700_32.html ) 700x30 tires without fenders. The last time I measured the tires, on Open Pro rims, I think they measured something like 30.5mm wide, but I can't remember what pressure that was at. HTH, Andrew

The Road does not have the high brake bridge that later Riv frames do, so I can't use these deep-reach brakes. Guess I'm stuck with my 105 brakes. That also means that I probably can't fit a bigger tire than a 28, so the 32 tires I just bought will also be re-sold. Anyone with a 1st gen Riv Road successfully fit bigger tires on 700c wheels? The prev owner said they had ~1000 miles on them, and that the salmon pads are newer. For Sale: 1 pair Silver brakes (very good condition) w/ salmon pads -- $65 shipped -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
