Hi, Just purchased Triban 300 white with microshift Shifters and derailleurs. Looks good had a few rides and shifting was accurate both front and back. Looking forward to put in may miles. Also wondering can we put 28C tyres on this or 25c is the limit.

There is a discussion on this subject in the technical section under wheels and tyres. It is specifially about the T3 which has carbon forks but I believe the frame dimensions are similar to the 300.

Welcome to the club mate! On your inquiry about 28 tyres, i have fitted my white T3 rear and works fine. Just make sure to trim the rubber protrusions otherwise they will ruin your paintjob.

Have recently replaced mudguards with SKS longs mark 2, seems to be slightly less clearance but maybe require a wee bit more adjustment.

BEWARE, the randonneur 28s that maximus has shown are claimed 28s, but measure 25mm!
