Max Tire size for a Rock Shox RECON SILVER COBIA 29
I have moved a Rock Shox RECON SILVER COBIA 29 suspension over from a 2011 Trek Cobia, and am trying to figure out the largest tire I can put on there. I'd like to run a 2.5" but I'm not sure if it will clear the fork.

This is the Framebuilder's forum maybe reposting in Bicycle Mechanics?
Don't forget to add the crap that the tire will pick up to the clearance trial. And of course tire/frame clearance also is affected by rim widths and the difference between labeled sizes and actual mounted widths. Andy

Still kicking.
2.5 should be fine.
