If Trek had had ONE Farley 9.6 left in XL, I could run 27.5 x 4.5s. Alas, I was too late in asking, and they are out until March!
So I'm pretty stoked with the Beargrease that I found, but it looks like a solid no-go for a 4.5 in back. No problem up front. In any event, I don't really know where I'm going with this, or even what the normal FB conditions are up here, so I'll soldier on with the D4s that came on the bike, and seem great so far.
Interesting trivia for @Ron and @Slim since you both seem to know mikesee: I believe he won the Arrowhead 135 at least once. A grueling winter race that ends around Tower MN, just a bit northwest of where I grew up as a kid. Nothing like that going on when I was up there, though. Long time ago. If you dig deeply enough in his blog, he might still have the writeup: http://lacemine29.blogspot.com/
I'll see if I can get the direct link from him later.
