Seems like running a fat tyre on 30mm internal rim might be quite nice for the chalky terrain I normally ride
I believe @umop3pisdn rides a setup like that in a similar part of the world?

@sacredhart Not sure a 30mm internal is enough for proper fat - I've got a nominal 3" tyre on a 35mm internal and is comes up more like 2.8-9".
I had a 2.6 on a 30mm internal on the back for summer and tbh it wasn't quite wide enough - and felt super draggy, though the squish was nice. Gone back to 2.35 on the rear for winter, mostly for clearance (Clarance).
This is 29", not sure about B+

Is running a enduro rear wheel (or pair of wheels) on a hardtail bridleway smasher a silly idea or am I just getting lost in industry categories? Seems like running a fat tyre on 30mm internal rim might be quite nice for the chalky terrain I normally ride.
