Biggest tires that fit are true 35mm (Barlow Pass), and they are tight. The geo is aggressive by any standard. I ride 62cm sized frames and this is the only bike I've ever had with toe overlap! The high BB got something to do with this, but still. It is very fun to ride; super quick without being twitchy and efficient feeling on long smooth stretches. Great uphill. Steep front end with an unfashionably long wheel base? Obviously the northern Europeans knew how to braze up a cyclocross frame, but this one is pretty spectacular.

Not missing the Stig.
