Commuting Bike With 26x2.3 Tires?
I've been car free for a year now, relying more or less exclusively on one overworked cruiser. I'd like to get a more streamlined bicycle for commuting alone. But I've got some expensive tires for my cruiser at 26x2.3, esp. my Freddies for wintertime. I've also got some pretty nice Sun doublewides I'd like to be able to swap back and forth as needed. I've found some other cruisers and mountain bikes in that range, but are there any simple commuters that can take a rim like that?

https://www.bgcycles.com/blt.html Scan down to the BLT-X with 26" wheels for commuting/touring. Takes tires from road width to off-road fatties.
