Thanks, Keith; noted about the spec limits of those bikes. I'll be
interested to hear of your experiences as you continue to modify yours. And
yes, nothing like a test ride.
But fully 3" 622 tires are non-negotiable in my instance, so I'll
regretfully rule out Hillibikes. Add to this another
OK, I understand you now: 3" fit fine **except** under the fork crown. Too
bad.
Thanks.

Keith: Thanks for this, very good to know. You said that 75 mm tires
(2.95") fit with ample room to spare on the Susie Longbolts; thus true 3

Answering your second question: I had 2.4 and 2.3 tires on my Clem, with

FTR the current (I didn't reread the old mock brochure) weight limit on
Susie is 205 lbs. If you're under that limit and like quill stems, there
ya go.

I note that the Wolbis or whateverthehellitiscalled is described as a Gus
for lighter riders. Given Grant's penchant for overbuilding, I'd guess that
the Wolbis is fine for a 170-lb rider who never gets pinch
Thank you Keith,
I recall seeing mention of Genghis and the Mongolian horseman/women but not
all of this info in one place.

I hope Grant doesn't get mad at me, but I think this is one version:

It's really rough, and he originally shared it warts-and-all, in the spirit
