Looks like you still have some room for your fenders (though it's close!!!). I realize for running on pavement, gravel roads and the occasional bike trail I'll probably need something a little different that the Bell "Roundabout" tires I have.
I run 700x35s without an issue, and could go quite a bit larger, even with fenders. The rear is more limiting than the front, but with the sliding dropouts and a tugnut, there is loads of room. I bet I could fit a 700x50 slick in there.
