Just browsing through Flickr photos and came across this beast!

This, my friends, has what you could call a nice large tire-to-frame-tubes ratio. 8" tires with room for fenders. Dang!

Note that, in testing, these tires actually proved to be faster than 700x25c's on average. Analysis of results seemed to point to the the 'supple sidewalls' on these bad boys.

Just had to share :)

Wow. . . I think I'd rather ride that down hill than up, though!
