    Rare (seemingly) Colson/Evans Commander Tank Bike

    Wheres it rubbing,on the frame or the fenders?If its the frame with the 2.125's try to get that wheel all the way back in the dropouts,course you'll have to add a link to the chain.The problem with the Evans frame is that it narrows considerably up front so bigger tires can be a problem.I may...
