A 622×76 Endomorph would be off the cool scale yes. Butwill not happen, as it’s not Surly’s own idea.
Who got money for a tire mold and pre-paying the first couple hundred tires?

Nice. Now all we need is a 622 Endomorph and a monster frame to fit it.

As I remember the USA press made an annual hoohah of the whole thing till Andy Heading from the UK won it first go. They promptly shut up.

I remember in the early 90’s when guys racing the Iditarod on bikes would take regular mountain rims and tack-weld them side by side to get a wider rim/tire interface. Then Snowcat came along and ruined the whole ghetto-fab construction that made the race so dangerous. Hooray for progress

GT - thanks for posting. This is a cool idea. I bet you could run some 2.4 Racing Ralphs or 2.55 WW LTs if you wanted to do this on the cheap and save the $$ it would take to invest in Endomorphs.
