what size tires are on the Motobecane? I have a fantom CX and am wondering how wide of tires I could run.
either way it looks sharp... Did you remove the stickers?
Thanks for the compliments [MENTION=134924]RidingMatthew[/MENTION]!
I bought the Fantom CX used and the guy that owned it prior said when he ordered it from bikesdirect and that they messed up and sent it without decals. Looks a little plain to me but eh whatever...
The tires are 40c. I contacted bikesdirect and they said 42c width will fit on the fantom. However I personally think 40c is the real threshold because my tires BARLEY have enough clearance!
