  1. Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to find some 700 tyres that are up to the job of getting a hybrid
    around a muddy trail. I've looked in quite a few Halfords/Bike Huts but
    cannot seem to find any. Do they exist? I think my only option is to get
    some smaller rims, which I don't really want to do.

    Cheers,

    Steve

  2. You want some cyclo-cross tires (or tyres).

    Yeah, except nowadays you need to ask for 29"er tires.
    they are just big fat knobbies for a 700c rim format.....

  6. Watch out for derailleur and frame clearance when you
    use 29er's on a hybrid. With any one over 38 c.
