Uni Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Hey peeps,I'm running Michelin 2.1 on my bike. This rubbing - can I assume it's caused by when there's mud on the tyres - as there's very little clearance anyway, or might there be another problem?I can obviously not go wider tyres, and will have to keep that in mind when the time comes to change tyres? Thoughts?
V12man Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Get your spoke tension and wheel offset checked - flexible wheels contribute to that as do incorrectly dished wheels.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 what v12 said. Most likely floppy wheel syndrome.
BaGearA Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Get your spoke tension and wheel offset checked - flexible wheels contribute to that as do incorrectly dished wheels.Do this first ^^^^^^^ But yes i also have scratches on my brand new frame due to mud on the back ( horrible gunky mud) and my clearance is A little better than yours. ( my wheels are new and were built by A well known builder so it not flex or something just stupid amounts of mud)
Uni Posted February 5, 2017 Author Posted February 5, 2017 floppy wheel syndrome - eish ... what next ...ok visit to bike shop it is.
Uni Posted February 5, 2017 Author Posted February 5, 2017 Not enough spokes on the wheel? How many is enough? You referring to weight limit on the rims?
