Re: [RBW] appaloosa tire fit

[tom horton]

you’ve caught me being lazy, patrick; but meanwhile I have been assured it will 
work, albeit with a bit of wheel flop up front (nothing troublesome, but did 
not notice any with the soma cazadero 50’s I removed.

thanks

[RBW] appaloosa tire fit

[R Olson]

For what it's worth, I have a 62cm Appa with velocity atlas rims and tried to 
fit the Continental X-King Protection tires Riv sells on their website - the 
2.4's.  Front fit fine, too tight in the rear - they rubbed on the chainstays.

Re: [RBW] appaloosa tire fit

The G One replaced the Big One, right? If so, and:

If any of you have G Ones that are 700C X 60 and that you no longer need
and care to sell;

And your G Ones are the absolutely lightest, folding-est, tubeless-est
model in this size that weigh about a pound each;

And they are as new or almost as new;

Then I'm interested in buying, and please get in touch.

Again, I am interested in the update to the Big Ones I own, that are true
60 mm (61 mm on my rims), tubeless, and weigh about 454 grams. I don't want
any other model.

Thanks

Ok thanks  will at riv says they may fit or not depending on the rim  
cliffhanger for example might push them out too much  but a close fit is implied

[RBW] appaloosa tire fit

Hi Tom. I bought a pair of G Ones and tried them on my Joe. Didn’t even take it 
out of the stand. “Too close for comfort” is an accurate description.

Re: [RBW] appaloosa tire fit

[James Warren]

Based on the similarity I have seen between prototype Hunqapillar, which I have, and Appaloosa, which I’ve seen, my guess is that if it fits, it will be too close for comfort. Both frames had similar margins when the Big Ben was on each.Most reliable advice: call and ask Riv. They sell G Ones, and should have Appaloosa on-hand.-Original Message-

Subject: [RBW] appaloosa tire fit

anyone know if a schwalbe g one speed tire, 60 mm, will fit the joe app?  I put the one I had on the front and fits fine. only possible issue would be side clearance down by the chainstays, I think. before I order another I thought I'd see if anyone's got actual experience.  thanks,

[RBW] appaloosa tire fit

[Ray Varella]

The Deacon Patrick gave you the best answer. 

The HHH tandem and Appaloosa do not share the same fork, the tandems have more 
clearance. 

I have an Appaloosa fork here to compare. 

Last year, when I was looking at a group of bikes at Riv, I’m pretty sure it 
was Roman who told me that they try very hard to make the front and rears of 
all their bikes to the same tolerances. 
I was looking at how fat a tire several of their models fit.

Re: [RBW] appaloosa tire fit

[tom horton]

thanks max. no fenders on mine, but yes, there’s a flop that wasn’t there with 
the soma cazadero 50’s that I had before…not a biggie, but I notice.  I’m going 
to order another big g one speed and try it for awhile.

all best, tom

[RBW] appaloosa tire fit

[Max S]

Fits on the HHH tandem, and I think they use the same fork?.. Fender fit is a 
bit tighter than ideal, but reasonable. 

BTW, how’s the flop with those tires on the Appa?.. The HHH is manageable, but 
I reckon a 50 mm would be dandy. (I had Hetre in it previously, which works 
well, but a bit more cush for the dirt roads here is nice.)

Re: [RBW] appaloosa tire fit

[hugh flynn]

I’m not going to be much more helpful here, but if you have a set of
calipers you could measure the width of the fron tire and just slip the
caliper over the current rear in place to see how the clearance looks at
the stays.

My hunch though is that if the front fits, the rear probably will too.

[RBW] appaloosa tire fit

[Deacon Patrick]

The good news is your front tire and your bike already know. Grin.

1. remove front tire.
2. mount tire to rear rim.

The answer will be clear. Grin.

With abandon,
Patrick
