Widest tires on Specialized Dolce comp?
Anyone know what the widest width tire a 2012 Specialized Dolce comp will accommodate? A friend wants to try a gravel road ride but needs wider tires. How wide can we go?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I can promise that you can get 28's on there with ample room - my wife's Dolce has 28 Gatorskin on it. I doubt you can get 32's on it though.
As far as getting the wheel off and on w/ 28s on it (we do it regularly to put it on a fork mount in the car), you almost have to deflate the tire a little and re-inflate, but that's not a big deal.
