I saw Fat Franks on CycloPath's beautiful rootbeer Super Deluxe. But it has the fender braces on the outside of the fenders, will Fat Franks fit on a new Cruiser 1 with full Electra chrome fenders? Thanks!

They will probably fit, but it will be tight. PW

Besides Electras and Schwalbes, are there any other interesting tires I might want to look at. I'm thinking, if not cream or brown, maybe a gum-wall. If the Continental Retro Rider was fatter I'd be all over that, they make good tires. Any suggestions?

Those Jerald Sulky tires are bad azz "Cheater Slick " Style tires. Gamebent has them on his "Vince" check them out!

Yeah, I like the J. Sulky as well, I have one on the rear of my Phatom. But you won't find them in a 2.35, they only come in 1.25. Still a sick tire!

Those Sulky tires remind me of the chopper bikes of the 70s. Cool looking for sure, but not really what I'm looking for. I'm leaning to a cream or brown Fat Frank or Continental. I had some Continentals on an old mtb, and I couldn't destroy them. They were great tires. I like the retroriders looks, but they're a bit thinner than I'd like. So... I'll keep looking.
