even if there is room the problem is trying to get an inflated 25 or 28c tyre through the brakes...

That problem will take the finest minds to solve. Back to CUK, OP.

Oh, yeah, just seen the responses on CUK. They pretty much covered it.

You asked this on the CUK forum yesterday, why do you think after being given advice that it's unlikely do you think you'll get a different answer here?

You haven't bothered to respond to the advice there in any case!

First time poster posts up an ask on a popular forum, gets multiple answers, doesn't respond and then the next day posts up exactly the same question elsewhere. Not only is it rude not to acknowledge the answers freely given by forum members and that being one of the most knowledgeable at least in the UK, it's also rather wasteful to ask exactly the same elsewhere, particularly when that's simply trying to an illicit a different answer to that given from people who know a thing or three and indeed the exact same answer given by the responder here.

It's well off base and I outed it for what it is. You and plasters radio on the other hand need to get a life and mind your own!

ahh, I get it now, you ARE the forum police! Heaven forbid we should be allowed to ask the same question on multiple forums. My mistake.

IMO you'll definitely get a 25 in there. I reckon you would get a 28 in the front, but maybe not in the rear.

If you have clearance for a 5mm alan key between your current 23 and the frame, then you might/should be fine.
