Sure:
These tires are 38's I believe. The rear was rubbing the chainstays even after I took an angle grinder to the side knobs. But the Barlow Pass ones fit.

I have the new Stig, maybe 1k miles on it by now. This bike feels good on road, gravel and moderate MTB trails. Santa Cruz carbon frames have, imo, a very high level of finish quality.

The recent Alex Singer on Ebay got me very interested in these purpose built bikes.
