Tire Clearance

Compass Bon Jon Pass 70c x 35 | TRP RG957 brake calipers | Better clearance. Actually, really good clearance. More than the Velo Orange.

Tire Clearance

Compass Bon Jon Pass 700c x 35 | Shimano BR-R600 | Beaucoup clearance!  These are the brakes that I run on my personal bike and are probably 12 years old (they are from the era of Ultegra 9-speed).  If you can find these brakes on the interwebs, they are worth snatching up for your long-reach brake needs.  Visibly has way more clearance than any of the other brakes.

Tire Clearance

Clement Strada LGG 700c x 28 | Tektro R539 Brake | For reference. Really shows how big the 35mm Bon Jon Pass tires are.  Huge.

Tire Clearance

Compass Bon Jon Pass 700 x 35 | Velo Orange Grand Cru Brake | Sufficient clearance.

Tire Clearance

Compass Bon Jon Pass 700 x 35 | Tektro R539 brake calipers | This combination is not recommended. The clearance is just too minimal. At speed a tire will increase very slightly in diameter (think dragster at the complete opposite end of the spectrum). There’s just not enough clearance present that I would not personally use this combo.
