I'd like to re-open the discussion re Greenspeed Scorchers on the back of a Brompton.

I have seen any number of posts that repeat the limitation that the chainstay bridge/brace does not allow enough room for a wider tyre such as the Scorcher. While the front may be OK, the rear is not.

So I just had a quick look at my Brommie and it appears that there is loads of room for a fatter tyre in the back.



Am I missing something?
