I have recently acquired and restored a 73 Paramount frame. I am presently collecting the best parts for the build, and I plan to use H Son Tb14 700c wheels to allow a period correct look and hopefully gain enough room for larger tires. (Ideally a pair of the Rene Herse 35mm Bon Jon Pass tires).
I have read through several discussions on similar topics, however none with a frame of my vintage, or the exact combination of rim/tires.
Does anyone have experience directly with this or equivalent combinations that they could share?
I know the bike came with 27" wheels and 1 1/4 tires with the room for fenders, which by the basic math suggests that 35mm would be ok, but I would rather know with greater certainty before ordering these items as returns here in Portugal are expensive. I would ideally like to retain room for correctly sized Honjo fenders as well.
Thank you in advance for any advice. I hope this topic isn't beaten to death and apologize if that is the case.
