    I understood that the TSR frame is shared by all models of TSR and certainly with my TSR27 I found the clearances not particularly tight.
    I’m given to understand that vibrations causing fractures of the guards may be a problem in time though.

    Thanks George I am trying to find out why the TSR30 and TSR8 are often said to have less tyreclearance – is it frame or brake type? since asking the question I have had a look on the Moulton website and the spec for all tsr models suggest max tyre width is 1.6″. If anyone has any more info I would love to hear it. Thanks

    The original TSR8 came with caliper brakes like the TSR30 so it was limited to 406 x 28 tyres with mudguards. But for the last few years, the TSR8 has come with the V brake frame also used on the 9 and 27, so they can accept wider tyres.
