The tire clearance in the front and back is very much dependent on the fork and the chainstays. I have been lucky to run 700x38c on some of my setups, the front fork being the more limiting. Trial and error approach is best for most optimal results as you are building a sub optimal setup.

I have a that same mega tube frame in dark navy blue and it is a 1” headtube.

Comparing the NTH to the Martini Racing , I think the head tube on the NTH is 1” compared to the Martini being 1 1/8. Can anyone confirm ?

Frame still available?
