Clerictgm mk2 Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Would them fit fourplay 2013 frame and forks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Booth Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Any reason you need a 3.0 tyre? They weigh an absolute mega tonne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clerictgm mk2 Posted July 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 I want to try and see what happens. 3.0 or 2.6 if 3.0 too wide. Need them for some natural FR, winter and FUN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Booth Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 I can't see the 3.0 fitting, the 2.6 maybe but gazzas are heavy things, is there no maxis/continue equivalent more suitable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stirlingpowers Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Ask Inspired, they know their clearances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Gibbs Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Doesn't the fourplay have a max tyre clearance of 2.7"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clerictgm mk2 Posted July 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) Don't know If guys at Maxxis are stupid or what, but HolyRoller 2.4" are wider than HighRoller 2.5 on same rim (approximately 5mm difference). Clearance of the frame itself are 9.3cm, forks 10.3cm. Edited July 31, 2014 by Clerictgm mk2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HippY Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 those brake mounts, wheels, suspensions... why is that difficult chain system needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 cos it's got a high pivot point for the swingarm which is efficient at taking hits as the wheel ark moves away from the direction rocks and bumps hit it. Unfortunately a high pivot point is whack for normal drivechains as the chainstay length grows loads and you need loads of chain which makes everything lose and clattery not to mention the chain wanting to pull the rear wheel closer messing up the suspension action. The way the Brooklyn is done isolates the chain from the suspension system so they can both work without interfering with each other. There's aa few brands which have done it a bit neater and less bomb proof though and combined internal geard hubs into the pivot point to get rid of any mechs at all.

eskimo Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Those bikes are sure funny to look at. Sprung! Friend had them tyres. Were about as wide as my 2.5" hookworm. Plus they punture proof. Get a pair of hookworms. Yes a pair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
