Timely - I'm grappling with what to put in the back of my new 29" hardtail. I've had poor luck on plus (2.8x27.5) until I put Huck's in, and in the end still ended up running a narrower rear rim to close down the volume and provide more ramp.
I'll be running a singlespeed, so ideally not adding much weight to the wheel, but keep wondering if I shouldn't have built a 25-27mm internal rear instead of a 30mm.
