Well, I was having a hard time with the 3 speed worksman wheelset. I finally got this together a few days ago. I was impulse tire shopping about 2 months ago on ebay, and ended up with 3 beautiful sets of tires. One i'm not going to use, and two that are too big to be sensible. So i looked at the placinto, and thought...Yeah, that will work.
Slapped my WTB Tires on, fit on the front, not even close to the rear. So I slapped a smaller tire on the back, and fell in love. It rode very well. So I decided to stretch the frame. The 26X2.3" WTBs were actually wider than the Maxxis Advantage 26X2.4"s. Stretched the frame a bit, and squeezed them in. Need to keep stretching, because there is not enough room still.
Here are some Pre Maxxis shots:
