Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Bluesky Threads My Nicasio+ is listed with a clearance up to 700×40, however the front fork clearance is pretty tight @ about 3mm. Is it gonna be okay, or should I run 700×38 to be safe? by brotoaster97 Bicycling Bike Bike Repair Biking Cycling Repair

I’d want more clearance for anything not paved
