Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Bluesky Threads For everyone wondering, whats the Tyre clearance in Thule Chariot Trailers: I confidently fit a 2,25*20"Schwalbe Rocket Ron. 2.4" Width would also bei OK imo. by MembershipNumerous34 #germany Bicycling Bicycling Germany Biking Biking Germany Cycling Cycling Germany cyclocross Fahrräder Mountainbikesport radfahren Radsport
Theraxant on September 12, 2026 7:52 pm Why did you put mtb tires on the non driven and non steered wheels of a rigid axle kids trailer ? What is the benefit compared to low profile tyres in the same width ?
_LewAshby_ on September 12, 2026 7:59 pm Why tho? I see zero benefit in treaded tires for a trailer. I have not once managed to „drift“ my trailer with the stock tires.
