Hi Aaron, Might seem like a weird question, but do you have a [double] kickstand on the Sam?
I had tire rub (26" Big Bens on a Hunqapillar) on the Pletscher double kickstand. Clearance was generally fine, but with low tire pressure and hard pedaling, there was enough lateral movement to get rub. shoji On Wednesday, February 19, 2014 12:50:37 AM UTC-5, AaronY wrote: > > Hey gang, > > I have Hetres on my first-gen (gold 'n' green) Sam H. with VO Zeppelin > fenders.
