Hi all. I don't know if anyone else has noticed but the front tire rubs the front fork tubes very slightly when the suspension is compressed. I noticed this when examaning my bike after it got dirty. The tire cleans off the dirt right down to the metal so it must be touching very lightly under those circumstances. It may be a factor when chosing a different tire. This is with the stock Dunlop is installed on the front.
