[RBW] Re: Clementine tire size?

They should definitely fit. I don't imagine Rivendell would be shipping the 
bikes with tires that can't be fenderized, and you really need a minimum of 
10-12mm for clearance. The Kendas at 1.75" are 48mm, and the fenders are 
60mm. I could be wrong, but I imagine these bikes can take the one size 
65mm SKS that Riv offers for all three wheel sizes.

Do we think they will fit the frame (52cm)?
The black will work well with the black clementine coming.

2015-10-30 Thread 'Mark in Beacon' via RBW Owners Bunch
I'm giggling how seriously awesome that machine looks. Those grips are 
neat, remind me of the ones on my old Schwinn Suburban--hope they are not 
doing the original plan of three different styles! I'm glad the 650B tire 
for the Clem comes in a bit under the 2" mark. I'm planning to try these 
fenders:

http://ecom1.planetbike.com/7054-8.html
Mark from Planet Bike posted the link on the 650B group and said they were 
new and were coming in November. Not sure why they put the info up 
beforehand, with "out of stock." At 60mm, they are rated for 1.9" tires, 
which puts them right at 48mm, which means if you want to get fancy the 
Compass Switchbacks will fit, too. 

I have the old style 26" 65mm SKS from Riv, but they are kinda misshapen at 
this point, and I have another project for them in any case. I worry that 
the newer 65mm model, designed for "29er" wheels, might create a 
problematic fender line (also would have to paint them black). I'm not 
generally fussy, but a handsome work horse like this deserves to have a 
good-looking fender. It would be nice if they were also 65mm, but oh well. 
Anybody else got fenders picked out? Are most going with the new 65mm SKS 
from Riv? I don't know that there are many options at that width, 
especially if you are looking for 650B-specific radius (which the SKS are 
not).

The small Clementine that my wife has came with 26x2.1 Kendra tires. My 
medium Clem came with 650B x 1.75 Kendra tires

The first delivered production Clem has been posted and it appears to be a 
52" with 44mm tires (Kenda Kwick Seven-5).

Well I will at least attempt to put 2.35 Big Apples (700c) on my 59cm 
Clementine with 65mm VO fenders; otherwise I guess I'll have to forego the 
fenders or go with 2.0 inch tires.

I think that the Larger size Clementine on the blug post from a couple of 
weeks ago has a Kenda "kwick nine" which is 29x2.0.

The smallest bike, as shown in a recent Blog post and which I assume is a 
production bike, has a Kenda Kranium which only comes in a 2.10" size 
(listed as 54-556).  The larger Clems must have a different tire because 
the only other Kranium size is 20".
