I am thinking of getting a Parlee Z3.
Will 303 Firecrest clinchers work well with this frame?
I know that they use round chainstays- Wondering about the clearance?
I want it to work well- not barely clear.

I have a similar question. I have a Z3. My somewhat imprecise measurements tell me it should work just fine, and I've had no problems with my A23 wheels with 23mm tires, but it would be nice to get confirmation from someone who has tried a very wide rim, like a Firecrest or a HED Stinger.

I'd like to think Parlee could answer this question easily.

I have a Z3 and used it with SMART ENVE 6.9 and no issues at all. Image
