I have an older Cannondale Warrior 600 that currently has 700x28 road tires on it. There seems to be additional clearance. I’d like to put wider tires with some tread for rail trails and gravel paths. I love the frame. It has the energy and nimbleness of a road bike with a relaxed geometry and want to take it off road now. Does anybody know the max tire size I could fit on it. Theres not a lot of info on these bikes. It has a fair amount of clearance on the forks and Cannondale Delta All-Conditions brakes. Thanks for any help.

The best plan is usually to measure the tire clearance yourself. Tires do vary, but if you can slip a 4mm allen wrench between the tread of your current tires and the frame with room to spare, there's a good chance you could fit 700x32C. (You'd only need an additional 2mm on each side.)
