Question for the masses
Would this tyre (mud king 27.5 x 1.8, nominally 47mm across) fit my kinesis Tripster AT? Has anyone tried it?
Kinesis give slightly contrasting information on what’s possible with the fork quoted for 45mm and the frame for 52mm for 700c but no 650b
Looking at this photo, you can clearly fit a 650b x 47 slick in.
For a mud tyre that isn’t massive, it seems like a good cheap option but i suspect it might be too tight to fit and have mud clearance.
