So here they are ----- clearance photos.
Oh, you wanted sharp, clear, informative pictures? Well, you should have paid holiday rates.
I had a particularly hard time getting a clear shot or rear tire clearance just because I wasn’t that interested in crawling or climbing or setting up special lighting. It looks to me like there is two mm all around though.
Sub 1-mmm between front derailleur arm and tire .... I had to fiddle with that again today. But it worked and it rides fantastically.
I think I have room for Conti Ultasports or GP4K Except maybe at the derailleur arm ... and I assume I could raise it even higher above the chain and gain another mm there if needed.
