Conti Vapor on a Rig... rear wheel clearance issues...
I know others have already talked about the lack of rear stay clearance when it comes to getting a little mud on the tire. After a particularly muddy race last weekend I bought a Conti Vapor 2.1 to replace the stock Bontrager skin. It's wishfull thinking on Conti's part to call it a 2.1 width. It's closer to a 1.7/1.8 in reality. It looks like it'll hook-up just fine as a drive tire.
Anyone else using a Vapor on their 29er?
