• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Low front fender - which size Twinduro?

I think I'm going to do TKC-80's on my Strada, but I won't have spoked wheels for a while (if, ever). So, I need tubeless for now.

I'm wondering if the 110/80 (taller) or 120/70 (wider/shorter) is a better fit with the low fender.
Obviously, the 120/70 will have a little more fender clearance. (I'm keeping the low fender for now.)
Suggestions?
 
I can not help you with the clearance part of that question, but I would suggest you look at the rim specs of those 120/70-19 tires.
You have a 2.5" wide rim.

I believe the 120/70-19 size are a recent development for bikes like the new BMW 1200GSW and KTM 1190 that now have 3" wide front rims.
They are also matched with the new wider 170/60-17 rear tires
 
Match to the stock size (110/80-19 TL 59Q).

Tons of clearance on the Strada low fender. I hit some pretty serious mud on my CDR trip, and didn't have any issues whatsoever with the mud clearance.
