Jim, Thanks for sharing your QB pics on flickr, not sure which I like better, the various configurations of your QB or your Lego interpretation of a QB! JohnS (fellow orange QB owner) On Wednesday, January 15, 2020 at 2:44:08 PM UTC-5, Jim M. wrote: > > I had Big Apple 50s on my orange QB.

A late update with two datapoints. I have a simpleone and silver quickbeam. Havent noticed a difference in clearance. QB has WTB 40mm nanoraptors on i19 crisscross rims, SO ive done 38 gravelkings and 36mm MSO x’plors under fenders. Both setups have comfortable amount of clearance, but fenders

Great news, thanks all! 38s with fenders would be a vast improvement over my 38s no-fender max Schwinn placeholder. I could certainly use a fendered bike since parting with a much too small, old Raleigh three speed. I also just saw Will’s newsletter update from this evening where he further

I had Big Apple 50s on my orange QB. Here's a pic . Close fit, and not much room for adjusting forward/backward, but quite comfy. jim m wc, ca -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from

Thanks for the shout-out Brian! I can confirm that I'm running 43c Gravelking SKs in my Silver QB, and echo Patrick's statement that that's all I'd expect to fit. It does limit the forward/backward range on the dropout to what I would estimate is a 6-tooth differential (based on almost no

To tire clearance, all the QB owners, from green to orange, to silver (I'm silver), report 38mm Rene Herse Barlows working brilliantly, and some try and stuff a bit more in there but doing so looses some chain play toward the front. I've run 44mm whatever they are called 700c Rene Herse tires
