Hi all,
I just picked up a lightly used 2015 RXC disc for general duty and wanted to pick your brains about rubber. I was hoping to get a pair of Maxxis Re-Fuse 40c to run tubeless on the stock American Classic wheels (21mm internal width, tubeless ready) but I'm afraid that there's not going to be enough clearance in the back. I've measured the chainstay clearance at about 42mm, lots more between the seatstays and fork. They make a 32c version and there are other options of course but I was enamored by the extra cushion and reported durability.
I'll pick up some knobbier tires down the line when/if I find some gravel or god forbid try some cyclocross.
Any advice is appreciated.
