cool great info, I think if I went that route I'd cut the required amount out, maybe even more. I like a bit of a tuck in the wheel wells. Can't wait to see this on the road.

Nice wheels. Oh ya, the rotors are nice too. What front suspension are you using there?

Nice progress so far! Any chance you mounted the wheels yet to see how well they tuck?

I really have no idea, all I can say is measure the width of your frame at the out side mounting points and I will measure my saddle and see what the numbers are.
