    not sure but probably not. the rear triangle probably isn't wide enough.

  3. I seriously doubt it. I had an 820 and it was of the same rear clearance as a great deal of its contemporaries, which were not intended past 2.1(2.25 sometimes).

  4. don't think they fit that frame

    you might just get away with 2.3s like the Conti Survival Pro perhaps...

    they are on our ebay store bicyclerubber and avaialble direct from bicyclerubber.com

    Cheers

  5. ive found when a tyre is too big it gets in the way of the front deraleur before it touches the frame on most bikes if you hjave the deraleur in the right position that is.
