frames that'll take a 3" rear tyre........

anyone know of any ? will a san andreas take a 3 inch rear tyre ?

i just found out the max my dh8 will take is a 2.7..... the hard way lol

as velo said , i'm trying to build the biggest heaviest dh bike i can

My Muddy Fox Dual fram takes a 3.0 but if it's a big DH your building then I know of two for sure that take 3.0..

Muddy Fox Rock N Roll from 2000 fits a 3.0, think that was the first time I saw a 3.0 tyre on a mtb.

My friend used to have a Cortina DH8 with 3.0's, really nice big heavy thing..

what size tyres do you run out of intrest ?

the cortina looks cool.......hmmmm

ps the sannie frame is quite light so u may need to eat a few pork pies to compensate...

well i'm not bragging but i'm 6'4 and 19 odd stone so it'll be fine

my big hit had a 3 inch nokian (over 3 inches) on it for a bit. I rode one with monster t's, long travel plates (10 inch travel) and 3 inch tyres on superwide rims once - that was a BEAST

i don't think I have ever seen a 26" 3.0 Gazz in the rear of anything

Many 24" x 3 rear and 26" x 2.6 front for that full on moto look. remember MX tubes

If you want the heaviest full on DH bike you'll be after a pair of sun doublewides, monster Ts, Magura gustav, Anonic cranks and DW bars.

All hanging of a Brooklyn machine works

I reckon you could hit 70lb if you try!
