What's the biggest gravel tyre you've fitted to your Condor Fratello - rim brake
Hi,
I want to use my Condor Fratello to do some "gravel riding". I want to take it with me when I go to Greece and ride some dusty gravel roads and tracks, but have the speed on the road too. But which tyres?!?!
The bike is:
Rim brake
No mudguards (no need for this trip)
Only one tubeless compatible rim (it's a Trigger's broom of a bike)
All help and advice gratefully received!

GravelKing SK or one of the Schwalbe gravel options.
Reckon you'd easily squeeze 30mm tyres in there, possibly 32mm depending on rim profile.
