hi I want to fit some schwalbe Marathon plus tyres to my new touring bike I'm building

Does anyone know if I will be able to fit these tyres in 32mm. To the rims,

Hoping they will be fine, but thought I'd better ask first.

Cheers

Why would you think they wouldnt fit is the better question. The rims will take tyres much much wider.

I read on a web page they are only designed for 28 max but you could go slightly larger, Thought it was best to ask.

I did assume they would be fine, il get some new touring tyres ordered for em now then.

Most road frame can only have enough clearance for 28mm which I think where the misunderstanding stem from.

See them on a number of cross bikes were people are running 35c+ without issue. Frames have more to do with clearance than rims (though 35c+ on a 19mm rim can get floppy)

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
