Widest rear tyre you can fit on an H2?

Post by h2chris »

I have got a set of mag wheels that will allow the use of a 130/140 section rear tyre. My question is what is the widest rear tyre you can fit on an H2 without using an offset sprocket?

Thanks,
Chris.

my h2 has a 140 rear on a 3.5" rim, I had to space the rear sprocket out by 2mm to get clearance, if you go for a 520 chain & sprocket set then no spacing would be needed
