Delite questions

[hkat]

hi folks, I’m trying to decide between the regular delite and mountain delite and had a couple of questions I’m hoping someone here could answer

do you folks know

1. can the front fender for the HS Rohloff delite be removed but not the rear pannier fender?

2. On the mountain delite can the semi wide 2.75“ tires be replaced with super motorX 2.4“ wide tires?

Hi @hkat, I must admit that putting Moto-X tires on a Mountain seems a little unusual. What is it in the Mountain you like? Choosing Moto-X implies a lot more road riding than off-road?

If you look at the specifications for both bikes they seem to be using the same rims, so my guess is you can go 27.5+ or standard 27.5’s.

Two important difference is the Mountain has different gearing (different sized chain ring) better for hills and off-road riding and does NOT come in a HS option.
