I am looking to put some slick urban tires on my Yo for the kind of riding I do nowadays... anyone have any idea how much width is too much for a Yo?

Too much? Nothing
![]() The Yo was designed with extreme wide tyres in mind. It was even one of the special features of the Yo design.

Let us know how the Hookworm 2.5" tires work on the Yo, I really love those tires and would want to try them on my Ti Fat Chance as I only ride that bike on pavement these days... Thanks, Michael-NYC |
