There is a plastic bridge between the chainstays I had to take of. Works great with the 2,0" Pacenti Quasi-Moto on the picture. A 2,25" Racing Ralph on a Shimano XT wheel didn't work, on a ZTR Crest it works but is a bit too tight. Would say max 2,1" Schwalbe size on the rear. Racing Ralph is pretty high so would work with a lower tire. Not sure about the new Continental tires.

Just another Evo. No big deal.
- Zipp rims will break if you look at them too hard
- R-Sys wheels will spontaneously explode
- The ZG crankset will never, ever exist
- Everyone needs Lightweights, even if they're fat and old
- Parts actually made of metal are SO 10 years ago

The bike isn't the problem
Here is my 86 with some fresh paint and a rebuild.

@p6x58de - As the proud owner of a 52cm CAAD9, I love seeing small-ish CAADs. That bike looks great!
@justdank - I would check with your local C'dale dealer. My LBS usually has a few hanging around somewhere. If that fails, these guys are good, too.
