I searched this forum and others and only found one reference to clearance issues on the front brake. That thread was 4+ years old.
So here it goes. I built up a new CD0.1 (size Small) for my gf this past week and I'm struggling with the front tire clearance. I have multiple wheelsets available and I'm running 700x25 on most of them. The rear is just fine, but the front is rubbing on the arch of the TRP aero brake. I swear I had it setup and braking hard, but with her first ride this morning, the tire was rubbing. I swapped out the front wheel with each of the others I had around the house and they all rubbed to different degrees. I put the stock front back on and we were off and riding, but I don't know if I'm relegated to 700x23/skinny wheels?
The website clearly says that the brakes have been updated to accommodate wider wheels, but perhaps not bigger tires? Or perhaps it accommodates just in the rear?
I sent an email to QR this morning via their website.
FYI - wheelsets include:
DA9000 C50s with Conti GP 4000 SII 700x25
Bontrager RXL TLR with R3 tubeless 700x25
Pacenti SL23 with Schwalbe One tubeless 700x25
They all rubbed. The RXLs almost cleared when I dropped pressure to 80psi and closed the brake tolerance to near zero (lifting the arch a bit)
Thoughts? Anyone successfully running 700x25 tires on the front of a CD0.1? If so, what am I missing?
Thanks!
Mike
