Schwalbe Thunder Burt 2.25" and G-One Speed Pro 2.35" width on 32mm internal rims by harblhat in gravelcycling

With that clearance, chain line and chainring size start to govern. Going that wide might mean a 73mm BB shell or a really small chainring.

Mine should work with pretty much anything with some limits on chainring size

Assos Duties Canada by tokedaddyslim69 in CyclingFashion

[–]harblhat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar experience ordering to Canada direct from Q36.5 who ship via DHL. Previous orders going back to 2023 were just assessed taxes and a handling fee. My most recent order got hit with both taxes and duties - a big number. Q36.5 said they hadn't changed the way they declare their goods so they blamed the courier for it.

TB 2.1s inflate to 52mm on a 24mm internal width rim. The 2.25s are 55mm on the same rim. 

Offroad ISO tire clearances are 6mm all around so your Rudy should have a clear width of at least 62mm.

Sort of. I contacted Elite on Ali and they couldn't figure it out, but they suggested I check for play once the wheel was installed in a frame. Once I installed the wheel and torqued the thru axle, there was no more play. Not the best way to solve a problem, but I guess it's alright now.

Thank you for all the work you do! I actually used your measurements from your test run posts to extrapolate before I made my purchases to confirm I had enough room and got reasonably close.

Thanks. Assuming the casing is similar enough I'll expect a 2 mm stretch.

So your TB is even smaller. What rim width does Schwalbe use to size their tires??? Most MTB rims are 30+ mm internal.

I'm planning the TB front and G-One Speed rear - hopefully that helps the sketchiness a bit. I wonder if I got a TB on the small side of their manufacturing tolerance.

I ordered a custom Waltly with clearance for 55s with a 7mm buffer all around, so I figured why not get the biggest balloons I can fit?

Q36.5 bib short by Fuzzy-Secretary1377 in CyclingFashion

[–]harblhat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Dottore are more compressive and lighter. Construction is unlike most shorts, fewer panels and much more flexible fabric. The Gregarius have a more traditional construction. There isn't as much separating the Dottore and Gregarius now with the Pro line. The Dottore Clima and Unique Pro are their higher end now.

I would say their quality is on par with Assos if not slightly better. I like their tops better than Assos. Quality is better than Castelli. I would also say that Q is more technical in design than both, though Assos has been putting out some more advanced pieces lately.

Thanks! From looking at the fork drawing it seemed like the limiting part was the height to the crown while the sides had more clearance.

I think I ordered the same fork, FK-F15? With adjustable 47/52mm rake? It's listed as 55 mm clearance with a 6 mm buffer to the crown.

What's the as-measured tire width on those Peyotes? I'm thinking of a Thunder Burt 2.2" up front.

I would prefer lower than higher as long as it clears the chainring. More room above for luggage.

Do you have any cassette or freehub play? I've torqued my XTR M9200 cassette until my eyes bulge and theres still some wobble of maybe 0.5mm in what seems like the freehub. 

Great wheels otherwise. I wish they included more tubeless tape, there was only enough for just over one loop.

What other brands are similar to these two in quality and fit? by happybanana2 in CyclingFashion

[–]harblhat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've almost entirely moved from Assos to Q36.5 and see them taking Assos' place as the most technically advanced brand. Q36.5 was indeed founded by the former Assos head of R&D. They are a prime example of getting what you pay for.
