Absolutely. I have 45mm WTB Riddlers on mine. The frame has loads of clearance. The only place where a 45 mm tire is tight is the right chainstay behind the dimple for the chain ring. There was about 1.5 mm there but I dished the rear wheel a few mm inwards. Now I have close to 4mm. Since it's a disc wheel, doing that had no downside. With a 650B
rim I'm pretty sure you could even fit a MTB tire.

It's a really versatile frame...it has attachments for fenders as well. Great value.
