• Royal looks sick, I recently got a Randonneur but haven't picked it up yet. how tight were the 35s in the back? looks like you could clear more at the front maybe. I'm thinking of doing the same as you - this thread is awesome btw! sorry I'm commenting on something you did 3 years ago

  • Cheers! Yeah, It's a beauty. It's still in bits since I moved to Austria. I am struggling to find someone to print high-quality custom decals for me.

    I went back through this thread and it seems 35mm didn't clear the rear safely. I wrote somewhere in here that 32 might have worked but I also know that the clearance differs quite a lot between the various generations. @thebikefelix did a really nice build of a Royal which I believe to be the same model and year as mine and he is running on 700c x 32mm.

    I think your best guess is to find someone with the same model and year as yours and check with them. A good starting point would be this thread on here.
    User @trigs is also currently building up something similar.

  • Yep can confirm mine is running 32mm fine, might even be able to squeeze mudguards
    For reference i am using Panaracer Gravel Kings
