The calipers say 2.35" on the Alex Tandem rims for the 2.4" Super Moto-X.

I will measure tonight. They seem huge compared to the 650B x 50 Big Bens 
on my Bombadil.

I suspect all the tires listed are great choices, there are so many good tires 
in this wheel size. 

Iconley, Do those Super Motos run true to size or are they also undersized like 
the Big Bens. 


I'm not planning on running fenders for the time being. 

Thanks all,
Ray

I did mount the Compass Switchback Hill, 650b x 48mm and they look perfect.
I got the regular version, not the super light at their recommendation.
Haven't really ridden it yet, other than coast in my backyard as I'm still
waiting for the Motolites (Paul had some issue with one of their machines
and it has caused a big delay in making the parts that hold the brake pads,
apparently; they promised they'd ship by the end of this week, but I'm not
traveling on business and won't be home till Friday. I expect to be able to
go on my first tandem ride during the Memorial Day Weekend!

[RBW] What tires are people running on their Hubbuhubbuhs?

2017-05-18 Thread Ray Varella

Just curious what sort of tire choices people are making for their tandems. 

I'm thinking about starting with something in the 2.00"-2.25". 
Schwalbe and Continental both have some nice looking tires. 
The Riv site is currently out on a couple of them but I can wait for a little 
while. 
The largest Compass tires are a bit smaller than what I want. 
I've been running Schwalbe Thunder Burts on a single for a few months and they 
are great but might be a bit less sturdy for a tandem than I want. 


The HHH has a theme song by the Beat Farmers called "Happy Boy"
It seems rather fitting, cue the kazoo.
