Hello, I'm considering the purchase of a 27mm rear wheel to use on my aluminum P3. Does anyone know if a wheel of this width will fit in that space? Thanks in advance for any replies.

P3 alum should be fine, it has more clearance in the rear triangle than the p3 carbon does.

I went ahead and bought the 27mm wheels. They fit in the frame alright but there is only about 3mm clearance on each side. If I were to ever break a spoke there would be no way to ride it out without putting some serious scuffs on the side of the rim. So to sum it up, it works but I'd suggest something a little narrower maybe a 23mm.
