I was thinking about ordering some for two '80s Trek frames I have. They originally came with 27" wheels, so clearance shouldn't be a problem.
Thanks for asking. I did get one to mount on the rear Major Tom on my Masi Gran Criterium. The front is a no-go since I replaced the fork with a Kestrel carbon 1" threaded steerer fork with clearance perhaps limited to no more than ~ 27 mm. Those big 30 mm Schwalbe's are about 370 grams each which is actually not a bad weight for such as big air volume tire. I have not ridden it yet but hope to soon. I can post a mini- review once I do.
