Yes those are 1.5, I would think 1.25 would be too skinny for a 230lb 6'5er, I'm playing around with the pressures now to dial it in. This type of bike takes a lot of adjustment to get it "right" feeling, I don't mind, it's interesting, with seat position, seat angle, bottom bracket in and out and chain length etc. It's getting there!
