I always thought there wasn't much room between rim and underneath the crown. Maybe i am thinking of Fatty's.

With the alloy fork and pre-suspension geometry, this cotic be the tight point.
Gets up my nose though when there's loads of room in the stays but the tyre rubs on the fekn bridge.
Or the back end takes a 37 but the front is maxed out at 28.

I noted that recently on a modern gravel thing. The rear had a lovely chainstay to BB arrangement allowing a decent size tyre and the option to go large on a single ring, but was specced with a carbon fork that was really limiting tyre width if you didnt want to saw through the legs with mud and stuff. I cant remember who it was but it was not mainstream which makes it even dumber.
Mind boggling as the trend now in gravel racing is 2.2 so i dont know what they were thinking. I guess it couldve have been a supply chain issue and it was the best they could get.

Sometimes the frame designer and the component picker don't speak to each other.
Sometimes they don't share a common language!
