I run open pros on a few of my bikes. I have a nice concours that I have been running 25c 4 seasons on but have some 28 and 32c gatorskins that I am gonna throw on for mixed gravel, dirt and pavement. Have any of you run 32c on open pros?

Awesome as I want to run 32c. So the only thing that really limits the tire is the frame and fork clearance. What bikes are you running those wide tires on?

I have installed 32/34 on open pros for 'age group' crossers..no sweat.

My first 29er had open pro's and 2.1 inch tires, never a problem. Currently run 38mm gravel grinders on a similar width rim. Frame and brake fit is another matter.

I've run 33mm cross tires on my Open Pros and seen much wider tires in use with no issues.
I've ran the big boy 50c Schwalbe Big Apples along with 2.2 mtn tires before. Psi's ranging from 45 down to mid-20's. No issues.

Open Pro's are a C15 rim. ETRTO standards for C15 are 23-32 mm tires. Of course, tire manufacturers don't always follow the standards.
