Hey, how is the clearance on your gravel kings? (i'm assuming they're 650b, right?)
I've got some Senderos (650x47) on the way and i'm nervous about them fitting in the frame. I'm actually tempted to get the chain stay crimps lengthened a bit if it's too tight.

Yeah I'm 650b. I went through a couple of tyre changes.. I tried WTB byways 47mm clearance was fine.. but grip wasn't, so I tried gravelkings in 1.9 inch, but they measured 52mm on it hunt rims and were too wide.. so I've settled on 1.75inch gravelkings which come in at 43mm so have plenty of clearance..

I was thinking of getting those gravel kings, but I wanted something as knobbly as possible for these wheels.
When the senderos eventually turn up I’m going to see how much room I have in there - I’m tempted to see if I can get the chainstay crimps extended if need be.
