I only put 28-32 on touring bikes. Why squirm up the handling on a tight wheelbase sport bike. Just went out in the rain and checked. It has 25c Continental Ultra sports. Uninflated, the front tire is about 1/8" from the brake and fork crown, maybe a tiny bit less. Inflated, that gap will become even smaller. I could probably put a much larger one on the rear, but that would look silly IMHO. Probably will use Panaracer skinwall 23's if I can still find them for a reasonable price.,,,,BD
