Lightest steel that accepts wider tires?
I have acquired a love for steel bikes. I mostly ride a Surly LHT, Trek 400, Lemond in 853 and a Miyata 610. I would love to own a light weight steel bike that would accept at least 32mm tires. Unfortunately my budget won't allow for a new purchase. Were there any older high end frames of light steel that accepted wider tires? I have been able to locate a few local bikes in 853 but nothing so far that accepts anything wider than 25mm or possibly 28mm tires. Any model names you guys could give me to be on the look out for would be greatly appreciated. It doesn't have to be an 853 steel bike but I would love to be right in the 20 lb range for a complete 58cm-60cm bike. Possibly a pipe dream but I thought I would ask.
