This bike is going to be used on mostly on pavement and fire roads, no crazy trails or extreme mud. My wife is pretty cautious.
Calipers say I have 56mm clearance at the tightest spot, and I'd like to go as big as possible. I guess that means something like a 1.75 with knobs, or a 2.0 slick that maybe measures a bit smaller.
Puncture protection and longevity > suppleness
Seems like there are a lot of really low end hybrid type tires that fit this bill but not sure if any are worth the time.
Ideas?
I also ran Compas 26x1.75 tires on my Atlantis and enjoyed them, too.
I'm sure others will share more options.
All the best,

Still, a really cool bike. My wife is 5'2 about 100lbs and not gonna go crazy on dirt, so the narrower tires should be ok.
