At the moment,I run a Schwalbe Fat Frank 26x2.35 on an 80 mm rim. No problems this far,but Frankie has had his best time,so in the near future he will be replaced by a Schwalbe Crazy Bob. At least,that's the plan. Can anybody tell me the width of a fully inflated Crazy Bob? If it's too wide,my plan goes down the drain,because of no chain clearance. Thanx in advance,guys.
 
They are the same size and brand so I can't imagine they would be much different. The profile(shape) on the Big Apple, Crazy Bob and Fat Frank look very similar.

I hope you're right,'cause the profile on a Crazy Bob goes all the way 'round the tyre (including the walls) and that's what worries me a bit.
So I hope the squares on the tyre-wall don't stand out too much.

If you had posted this last Friday I could have measured a C.Bob at the London bike show on Saturday.
Schwalbe and Continental had big stands with all their ranges on rims.
