Wait, what? People are actually making their own CF frames DIY style? That's pretty cool. Not sure I'd do it myself but still interesting. Had no clue.

^^hahaha. One of my finer moments was realizing I could use my bike wheel as a wheel of fortune.
I wouldn't necessarily say any 2.2 tire would fit until tested. For reference I'm running the 35mm wide , which is 30 on the inside. Have a 2.1 Thunder Burt mounted on there, but is extremely difficult to seat as the tire doesn't want to spread out that much without some help. So on a 35mm wide opening some 2.2 tires may not open up enough to seat properly, which may leave them to burping or rolling off the rim in hard use.
Bottom line, if running a 42mm wide rim, you ahould probably run a 2.35 minimum, more likely a 2.5.

Probably because it is - that's a 20" kids' fat bike.

I would use this bike for the odd ride on the road,training in the basement offseason and take it out when im feeling like a new steed on the xc trails....
The Trek with the Rockshox RS1 looks really nice.
