Remember not all tyres are the same overall width for a given size. On both my banana arm hybrids I run 160/60x17 Michelin pilot powers 2ct and they do fit,but only just,also remember 520 chains vary in width also. Baz

I have a 150 back tyre on my bike, i was thinking about putting it back to 140 to help the handling Have had a 150/60 on mine since I built it a good few years ago but now have a 140/70 fitted which I have not ridden yet. Decided to try it for the same reason as you. Found it unwilling to turn in when on the power, had to back off then on again once tipped over Steve
