Vilano Tire Clearance
 
I just picked up "blemished" vilano frame off flea bay for a SS/Polo/Take of Jumps build with parts i have laying around. I'm just curious if anyone who owns one could chime in on the widest tires you've used on it.
Thankz

I just built mine up with 22mm tubulars. It looks to me like 28mm tires would surely fit, and probably 32mm would fit. The main limitation is tire height, not width.

Alight thanks. But you actually put 22mm sew-ups on a vilano? They would be worth more than the frame. I picked mine up for 50 shipped.

I put very very old sew-ups on very very cheap and old wheels that I've had for decades. In fact the entire bike was built up with existing parts, and I spent $0 over the shipped cost of the frameset, which was $53.95.

Good deal. I might have you beat by a few nickels on final cost hahaha.

I picked up the same frame and built it entirely with stuff I had laying around.. Not a bad deal for 50 beans
