Platy questions

[Ryan Mulcahy]

Hi, folks! Thinking of trying for a Platypus Sunday -- love the color -- and have 2 quick questions -- 1, what's the biggest tire you can get on there?; 2, for folks who have ridden a Platypus and a Joe, Sam, or Atlantis -- can I just get some rough comparisons of ride quality/feel? If I get this bike I would be taking it mostly on trails. Thanks in advance and happy weekend!

The biggest tire I’ve tried was the GravelKing SK’s 29x2.1. There was still a comfortable bit of room. Not a lot, but enough. I rode it on trails like that, but now it’s my main commuter with 47’s and fenders. 

I just built up my Atlantis, but it has Crust Towel Rack drop bars. And I’ve only spent about 20 miles on it, so I’ll leave the ride quality/feel comparison to someone else. 

Get the Platypus. It’s awesome.
