Patchelicious Posted July 19, 2017 Share Hi guys, Just wanting to know about tyre clearance. The 2014/2015 models, can you get 25/28c tyres on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spinnekop Posted July 19, 2017 Share As a side note having had 25s on the Evo, I am moving back to 23mm Wider is not always better. Depends a lot on the rim....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted July 19, 2017 Share Nope for 28. A friend of mine tried his damnedest, no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cippo Posted July 19, 2017 Share Try running a 25c front and 28c rear if you can and want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breezer Posted July 19, 2017 Share Hijack (sorry patch). I have a cervelo s3. The tyre clearance rear isvery small with a 25 tyre. I do not want to risk fitting a 25 and then have it rubbing against the frame. Would there be any gain by fitting a 25 front aand a 23 rear. I would really like to make the bike a bit softer on the body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongoose! Posted July 19, 2017 Share Normally the limitation is the brake calliper.Also the rim width. Put a 25mm / 28mm tyre on a rim designed for 23mm tyres and you have a "light bulb effect" forcing the tyres upwards and not wider. Edited July 19, 2017 by Mongoose!

Patchelicious Posted July 19, 2017 Share Cool thanks guys. The one I am talking about has 25c on already, that is more than enough for CPT roads. Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allez Posted July 19, 2017 Share @Patchelicious - are you running 25mm on a supersix already? I have a supersix evo hi-mod and cannot get them on for certain rims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchelicious Posted July 19, 2017 Share @Patchelicious - are you running 25mm on a supersix already? I have a supersix evo hi-mod and cannot get them on for certain rims.No, I am not. But the one I was looking at does. Actually has a 26c Spez Turbo on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allez Posted July 19, 2017 Share Officially the 2014/2015 Supersix Evo Hi-mod can only take up to 23mm. I consulted Cannondale. I have this problem as I cannot put 25mm on my mavic wheelset and have enough clearance. You will get wheel rub. However it depends on the rim though. Some rims allow the 25mm to fit in the space available. Not sure about the standard Evo version. Edited July 19, 2017 by allez Wannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Bob Posted July 19, 2017 Share No, I am not. But the one I was looking at does. Actually has a 26c Spez Turbo on the back. I ended up putting 23c on my 2015 evo but on nice wide American Classic wheels and it had a great profile and looked pretty damn fat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allez Posted July 19, 2017 Share I ended up putting 23c on my 2015 evo but on nice wide American Classic wheels and it had a great profile and looked pretty damn fat. Done the same with my other wheelset and it works. I think the problem for the wheelrub is the 'bulge' the tyre makes when inflated. On wider profile not really a problem. However I think if you should ride it in the rain or put pressure on the cranks, slight change there can be wheelrub. Again, it depends on what level of risk you want to take. Also remember the warranty can be affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
