Could someone explain these measurements? What does the "cc" mean in the 26" x 1.75-2.5cc measurement? Need a tube that fits a 26"x2.10" tire, thanks!

I don't know what the cc is for but on the box itself it says 26x1.75 - 26x2.5 so it should fit your wheel just fine. But you should also check (if you haven't already)if your current tube has presta or schrader valve.

Yes, but one must understand the difference between a 1.75" and a 1 3/4" tire. They are not the same in the bicycle industry, even though the number sound mathematically correct. So, in essence if the rubber product states 26 x 1.75 and the box says 26 x 1 3/4, it will not fit. I clicked on the product that came with my question and it reads 20-x 2.125-Inch in which case it will not fit. It is a solid piece of rubber that does not stretch much, but get the right size and it is great. Just be careful about the sizing. For some reason unknown to me decimal sizes and fractional sizes are not the same in the bicycle industry. ??? Yes, but one must understand the difference between a 1.75" and a 1 3/4" tire.

you need tires that are 26x2.i25 if you have a 26 inch bike.most tubes today will say on box.26x 1.75 to 2.125put a little air in tube,then put tube in tire to,install easy..if its late 50s could be 26x 1.75 make sure of 26-25 size wheel.make sure of your size.put wheel next to other size wheel on a other bike.keep riding!!

There are multiple entry numbers for 26 inch wheels. It depends on the full wheel size. Look at your tire and see if it has multiple numbers following the 26 (for example 26x1.75x2) Use that size to correspond with table C on page 16 or 17 of the manual. Then go to page 18 to see how to input that number. Sorry I cant explain much better than that.

Here is the long answer that should tell you everything you need to know about tubes and tires. First off, let's decode some of the numbers. 700C or 29" are both the rim size ISO 622 (that is 622mm in diameter where the bead of the tire seats on the rim). When you're looking at road tires, they're more likely to say 700C (from an old French system of naming tire/rim sizes) and when you're looking at mountain tires, they're more likely to say 29". Occasionally, some European tires, especially Continental, will try to confuse the matter by calling them 28" - but look fir the 622 to be sure of the size. 23/25 or 18-23 on a tube indicate a range of tire widths with which the tube is compatible. Since an 18mm wide tire has a much smaller cross section than a 25mm tire (just imagine those as the diameter of a circle), a tube designed to fit a 25mm tire can be much too big for an 18mm tire. In that case you'd risk getting the tube folded on iteself or pinched under the tire's bead - both of which can cause a flat. So, when selecting a tube, you should get the narrowest range that will fit. If you had a 23mm wide tire, 18/23 would be a better choice than 23/25, though both will be better than a 28/32, for example. The 48 or 42 mm length listed below is the length of the presta stem. Different manufacturers measure stems differently, so it's hard to get an accurate comparison, but a 32 will be shorter than a 42 will be shorter than a 60 and so on. You just need 12-15mm of stem to stick beyond the rim so you can get a pump onto it, though, for some people, a little extra length isn't a bother. If you've got a deep rim, you'll need a longer valve stem. But if the 48mm stick through with plenty of extra, a 42 is a safe choice. ORDER ROAD RACE TUBE. Thus is your present tire is a 25, I would get the 20-25 tube, less chance of the tube folding over or pinching it because it is too big. Hope all of this information is useful in the future.

I can't tell. They are measured in MM not CN. But no where on that page does it say the width size which is what you are looking for. If you are dead set on 25mm width then keep looking around. Worse case scenario is that these particular tires are 23mm which isn't bad cause the black chili compound gives you a cushier feel than normal 23's. They could be 25's also but there is no way to tell for sure unless they write the size.

To answer the first question, the size I purchased was the 700x28c. I could not tell you if it fit into my frame (which fits a 28c Continental Hardshell Gatorskin in the rear and a 25C Conti Hardshell Gatorskin in the front) because I could not get the tires onto my rims. The 700c part was not true. I have had many other tires on those wheels but this one was sized smaller than a true 700c. So to answer the second question, since I never got the tires onto the wheels and therefore the bike I could not tell you how they handle on any type of surface. The price point these tires are usually sold at make them look like a good deal, but I would advise you to go with a German made model from Continental as opposed to any model made anywhere else (I believe these tires were made in India). The handmade German tires have always proven to be produced under tight quality control, in my experience. I cannot say that about non-German made Continentals.

My tires are 26 X 2.1. They are working fine. I had not trusted the rubber ties that came with the fenders so I placed enough plastic ties on the to hold them in place and they haven't come off. My bike has disc brakes front and rear. I had to take the fender holder on the front forks off because it would cause the tire to rub the fender. I hope this helps.

The 26X1.9 refers to the 26 X 1.9 inch version. However I am sure this tire is of the mountain-bike variety. I own this tire in the 700X19mm tubular, and the aforementioned 26X1.9 inch is not in the same category, nor price range. I would call a high end bike shop and, or go to one in person, at least for a look over, as to get a genuine reference as to what you want. You would hate to be disappointed at getting a fat tire for your racing machine. Good luck, and take care....

Hi Ed, I converted 12" to 304.8 mm, I then entered 0305 into the computer and it took, no problem. Some advice, First you need to determine the exact tire diameter in MM. To do this is pretty easy. 1st, place the tire air valve so that it is in the 6 o'clock position and mark the floor with Tape, erasable marker or even a tooth pick. Then move the bike forward till the tire valve again reaches 6 o'clock and mark the floor then measure the distance between the 2 points with a tape measure. If your tape is not metric, no problem, just Google "Convert X inches, including any fractions to MM" and google will do it for you instantly. Please note that this and many other brands will tell you to have the rider sit on the Bike while moving from point a to b as the tire will flatten slightly and give you a very slight but different measurement. I did not do this, my reading was exactly 2000 mm and that works for me. you can also go to 'youtube' and enter "how to measure tire circimference on a bike for a cycling computer" and see someone do it. Another thing to keep in mind is that No Cycling Computer Mfr will tell you where on the wheel spoke to place the Magnet or the Transmitter. Why? because it doesn't matter. Some people claim it is better near the hub while others will say it is better near the rim. Technically the hub spins faster than the rim, but you'll notice the valve and the hub reach full circle at the EXACT SAME TIME. I placed mine closer to the Rim 'cause it does not stand out (I will post a picture) and the wireless transmitter being closer to the computer will give me better performance over a longer period of time. I hope this answers your question and then some. BTW, this computer is a lot easier to set than others that have way more functions added.

That's for the diameter of the tire. This larger diameter would only matter if it would force you to buy new tubes, or if for your tire is already extremely tight in your frame. These diameters are so close together that I think you won't have any trouble with this new tire.

Adina, on the site "700 x 25-28 (27 x 1-1/8-1-1/4) 32mm PRESTA" the 25mm that you are in question is the width of the tube (tire rim) ; (range 25-28 that translates to 1-7/8 - 1-1/4). this is an update to my previous response.

I believe that 700 x 28C means your tires are roughly 27.5 inches ID (bead diameter) and 1.25 inches wide. I have these on my bike with 27 inch x 1.25 inch tires (my bike is over 35 years old) These are a nice snug fit on my bike. I don't believe the 0.5 inch difference in ID will make any difference as these fenders are probably actually made for current size tires. But if you were worried about the width being too wide you should be quite happy with the snug fit.Hope this helps you.

I just checked my tires. There is not an 'o' in the listing. The size is 26x2.125. These tires require a higher psi inflation to overcome the added resistance that so much heavy tread on the pavement creates. As for durability, I have no doubt. But the tire when inflated in enough larger than the originals I've had to remove the fenders, both front and back. Whether it is the tire for your bike, or not, you'll have to decide.

Not according to http://www.bicyclewarehouse.com/buyers-guides/all-about-bicycle-tires-pg482.htm and the wikipedia article on bicycle tires. The first number is the diameter of the wheel and the second is the width of the tire and the "c" means it is measured in the metric system. I have also read that the "c" means "clincher," but both of the above references seem to dispute that.

The main dimension is the 20", and will only fit a 20" rim. The second dimension 1.75"-2.125" is the width of the tire, some bikes have thinner rims (1.75" tires) and some bikes have wider rims (2.125" tires). This tire will fit both. In my opinion this tire is on the thin side.

Yes! The 26 represents the diameter of the wheel and since both the tire you currently have and the tire you are replacing it with are the same, it will work. The 2.125 and the 1.95 represent the width of the tire and as far as I can tell only matter when you purchase the tube.
