Build this up over Black Friday sales! Built with enve parts, madrone and Shimano grx drivetrain. Conti raceking 2.2s front and rear. Whole build 19.6 probably would lighten up if I put carbon wheels on it but the wheels I want are still on backorder so aluminum wheels for now. Super hyped how it came out and it rides great feel free to ask questions

That tire is definitely going to rub those chainstays
Oooeh, that last picture is concerning.
I would absolutely not ride that. There’s not enough clearance there. You’re going to destroy your frame. (Hell, just the sprues will wear on it. Not to mention what happens with dirt, wheel/frame flex, etc.)
Hope you don’t like your paint
Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.
I ran stuff that close on my previous frame and in several events had rocks get stuck in the tread and make obnoxious noise until I could stop and get them out. Plus the dmg to the paint. Nevermind mud as you already mentioned. Be surprised what get stuck sometimes.
I have the Tideace Noah (same frame but direct from china). The Schwalbe Thunder Burt in 2.1 is already pushing the clearance a bit, but still ride fine.
Those 2.2 Conti would definitely rub in the back and destroy the paint/frame. They look cool, but it’s not worth it OP!
Super cool frame. I usually really dislike dropped chainstays, but the mild drop they went for looks great. I’d opt for a larger frame bag. It looks comically small
Nope that’s too close to work on the long term – also why on earth would you choose pure grip compound tires? Black Chili is the way to go
Nice one
