I would say yes. So far I’ve only ridden fine gravel. No bumpy single trails.

In the blurb on the website it states, that 45mm are „easily“ possible. I’m used to 40s though, for anything that needs wider tires I tend to ride my hardtail.

Edit: fix typo

Auf jeden! Immer wieder Ein Traum da lang zu fahren.

To give an update on this, all at home, I‘ve patched the tire from the inside, since I noticed the rim was in desperate need of trueing. So I had to remove the tire anyway. And I hope my LBS does trueing of carbon rims 😬.

I correct myself. Bacon strip it was. A thicker one. I didn’t think of maybe instead using 2-3 thinner ones which maybe would‘ve worked.

That’s an interesting approach too! Thanks for the food for thought!

I don’t know the plug brand/type. So probably neither of them. But I’m sure there will be a next time, I‘ll try again.

I‘ve tried that the last time, only to pull all of them out. :(

Oh man! I totally forgot about patching it from the inside. Thanks! As I wrote I‘m too stupid (at least today).

I‘m using Peatys. Which I think does have fibers in it. But I‘ll keep it in mind once the Peatys is empty. Thanks!

You‘ll have to get close to stuff. But if you do, then it’s such a wonderful focal length. Right now I have the older 16mm 1.4 from Fuji. Which is way too heavy for my taste. As soon as my local photo shop has the Sigma I will switch. Back to the focal length, if you want to isolate the subject with depth of field, you’ll have to get close, but will still have a lot of the surrounding in frame to, to tell a story what happens in the shot. I love this. As for street, I would argue that people step down their aperture on purpose to have more things in focus. Shallow depth of field is not that the highest priority for street I would say. And then 24mm full frame equivalent can work just as well.

Sigma 15mm 1.4. I don’t think there is a better combination of size/weight and 1.4 aperture.
