    Hi there,

    I’m looking to put a little comfort on my bike throughout the winter and therefore I’ve been looking to buy some 28mm tires. I’m a little in doubt about the clearance, if the Cannondale CAAD12 with rim brakes, can fit 28mm tires. I’m currently riding on Bontrager Aeolus Pro 5 TLR Clinchers wheelset. 

    Does anyone know or have any experience with this?

    Thanks,

    Alex

    I’m running DT Swiss RR21 wheelset with GP4000 28’s & same situtation for me.

    Either need to deflate the tyre or wind out the barrel adjuster all the way to get the wheel through 105 brake calipers.

    Did a 60 mile gravel ride yesterday with no issues.
