Looks like the Metmachex swing arm on my 4L1 hybrid would take a 130 section tyre. Has anyone tried this and if so does it fit and what is the effect on the handling, the bike is on standard wheels. Cheers Grant

most people will say that the LC likes the OEM sizes best, 3.00 and 3.50 x 18.

It will make it like a skinny bird in those big platform shoes
One size up max if you must.
If you put a wide tyre on a skinny rim it just ruins the profile and ends up with tread where the side wall should be so never used

120 max on standard wheels would be my choice, my standard 4l0 has a 120 rear and never noticed any difference to handling, was a right bar steward tae fit though, think a 130 too much for a standard wheel in my opinion
