Wide - that off side front brake line looks like it has a rather unhealthy bend just below the support clamp off the rear of the fork leg. Might be the camera angle, but worth a check.

The Ten is at best at speed, its weight will help you to push/plough through/over most of the obstacles you'll encounter.

Tires are OK. In really sandy/muddy conditions you might be more comfortable with enduro tires (like Michelin Enduro Competion IV). Run them at about 1.0bar / 14,5 psi for more grip on slippery grounds.

Your wheels would get smashed to bits riding the terrain we have in South Wales with those sorts of tyre pressures, i even run 18 psi on a small enduro bike because the terrain varies so much.

Dont get it too dirty now Phill bigwink

You're probably right: only have sandy grounds over here (and mud)
