So many cute tires, so little time.
Hang on a sec, I'm going to run out and get a frameset that'll take these
and Rock and Roads

This is really good news! Part of the reason I wanted to explore
switching to 26 wheels was that my 700c bike doesn't have clearance for
29'er tires and the nano was a tire of particular interest. I think they
will sell a lot of these 40mm Nanos.
Now I'm sold on the 26 wheel size
Mike,
Thanks for the news. So these are just narrower 29er tires?

narrower version of the 2.1 version with some tread mods. The 2.1 version
is available in both 26 and 700c and was the tire of choice for long dirt
road rides like the Great Divide route. Pretty fast on pavement for a
knobby too.
Do the Nanos measure true to stated size? IIRC my AllTerrainasarus measued
a bit small. But even if 38mm, a good alternative if you want something a
touch more agressive than MSOs but still good on the road. These have me
pretty excited. If they can handle high pressure, I'd put them on my
the 2.1 Nano's measure at about 49-50mm depending on rim width. The
gravel bike thing is churning out a few interesting tires. A good thing
IMO.

Thanks for posting. This is good news. Just in case people haven't seen
it, here is yet another, similar new option from Surly - a 700c x
41mm, based on their 29+ Knard tire.

Cool back-story on the nano-raptor, in that link. I think it's great
Ritchey ZED is a case in point. Damn those were some good tires.

Knard 41s are on my short list. Nice backup those Nanoraptors, might even be a
better bet on the Simpleone.
