To little to late?
Well I bought an old 93(?) Hard Rock, and I kind of like it.  So I am fixing it up a little, nothing fancy.  Now the tires it comes with are 1.9 x 26 Hardrockers.  From the looks of it 2.1 is pushing my luck.  18 - 20 mm internal width(?)  Not sure if any body still make any thing like that.  The Cliffhanger  is rim brake and tubeless, but 25 mm internal, and 600 grams.  Mostly this old bike is for stashing at trail heads, or shopping.

I kind of like it, no plans to buy premium parts or anything, but breath some new life into it, mostly with old parts and hubs I already have.  Need some rims though.

edit;
I ended up with Alex Adventue 2 rims, tubeless ready and machined side walls for rim brakes.  My 93 Rock Hopper lives again.
