I have a road bike that has 700 28c tires. Can I use these rims?
1961789
Yes, I believe you can. The description of the item says they "Fit Tire Size: 700c x 23c to 32c". The the only problem I would have said you would have run into is the clearance for the brakes using the larger tire, but because your bike is already using the 28c's you should be okay. I used these tires all last year and loved them. For the price they are really nice. Just make sure you are using a tube with a longer valve stem. The smaller valve stems will not make it all the way through. Have Fun Riding!

You shouldn't have any problem using these wheels with 28s, especially with wire tires. As you may know, the rims are on the heavy side and not at all aero, but they are strong.

yes, I got these rimes with Schwalbe Marathon GG RLX Wire Bead Tire (700X28). its as perfect match

After reading the listing, or going to the website you will find that this wheelset only fits a 9 speed hub. 700c wheelsets are for road going bicycles, and 29er's are used on mountain bike frames designed to use the larger than standard rim. 29er wheelsets are much wider for use with MTB tires, not the standard narrow 700c road tires.

John, Sorry I don't know. When I bought the 700x32c tires I was replacing my 700x28c tires.

first, make sure you don't have 26 inch tires, like a mountain bike - because 700x26 is kind of an odd width. i'm sure it exists, but it's not that common. if you really do have 700c wheels, then there's a couple things you need to consider.1. is there any room in the frame for a wider tire? stick your nose down there and see how much clearance you already have.2. is there room for fenders, if you need them? this may not matter.if it fits in the frame, there's no reason you can't go wider. i've done it. if you have calipers or v-brakes, make sure you open them correctly to allow the installation of the tire. good luck. this is a good tire, in my opinion, for the money. first, make sure you don't have 26 inch tires, like a mountain bike - because 700x26 is kind of an odd width. i'm sure it exists, but it's not that common. if you really do have 700c wheels, then there's a couple things you need to consider.1. is there any room in the frame for a wider tire? stick your nose down there and see how much clearance you already have.2. is there room for fenders, if you need them? this may not matter.if it fits in the frame, there's no reason you can't go wider. i've done it. if you have calipers or v-brakes, make sure you open them... » Read More first, make sure you don't have 26 inch tires, like a mountain bike - because 700x26 is kind of an odd width. i'm sure it exists, but it's not that common. if you really do have 700c wheels, then there's a couple things you need to consider.1. is there any room in the frame for a wider tire? stick your nose down there and see how much clearance you already have.2. is there room for fenders, if you need them? this may not matter.if it fits in the frame, there's no reason you can't go wider. i've done it. if you have calipers or v-brakes, make sure you open them correctly to allow the installation of the tire. good luck. this is a good tire, in my opinion, for the money. « Show Less

I'm running 700x25, I think you could get away with a 700x30. Refer to http://www.biketiresdirect.com/tire-width-article, these rims are 14mm inside width; according to the chart in the article, you should be okay as long as your frame allows.

I have only used them on a mountain bike. I doubt if they would fit the thin wheel of a road bike.

Unfortunately 700c is not compatible with 27x1-1/4. 700c is roughly equivalent to a 29in rim. You will either need to purchase a wheel that is sized for a 700x38c tire, or purchase a new tire that will fit a 27x1-1/4in wheel.

No, you cannot. With these chains you can use the following tires and wheels: 30x9.50 15 LT; 225/60.18; 225/75.16 ; 235/50.18 ; 235/70.16 ; 245/60.18 ; 255/50.19 ; 225/55.18 ; 225/70.16 ; LT225/75.16 ; 235/65.18 ; 235/75.15 ; 245/65.17 ; 255/55.18

I also have an old Schwinn road bike with that size tire, and I've been using this rim for the last week. No problems.

the s-7 tires are made for old Schwinn bikes. schwinn had different wheel sizes than other bike manufacturers. buy 26x2.25 and not s7
1101689
Yes, you can. the only difference you will see is a thinner tire, but will fit perfectly in your rim

They are a 700c tire. They are closer to a 28 or 29 inch size but aren't meant for either

No, this rim is not a 28. This rim is the same diameter as a 29er. However this rim only accepts tires in the 700c X 23,25,28. The 29er accepts 700 X 35,40,48 they are not interchangeable. Hope this helps. I have a set of these Teny Rims on my fixie.

Yes... IF... your bike is a vintage early 60's through early 80's 26" Hollywood, AND... still has the original Schwinn S-7 rims. These rims take the special Schwinn 26 X 1 3/4 tire, not the standard 26 X 1.75 tire. Fraction = Schwinn, decimal = standard. The original Schwinn rims typically have a knurled strip down the middle where the spokes go through, and some will be stamped Schwinn Approved and S-7. For inner tubes, no special Schwinn size required, 26 X 1.75 - 1.95 work fine. The new Chinese made Schwinn Hollywoods available these days at Wall-mart and so forth take large balloon style tires, completely different. Hope this helps. .

Yes, 700 is the rim size. State of the art for soured and best ride is 700x25, and you should look online to note that inflation level will be much lower than a 23mm tire, which makes the tire roll faster, with better traction and more comfort...

The 23mm width tires should fit most standard clincher road rims. 25mm should be fine also. If you go to 28mm tires, they may rub the frame.
1989546
Yes, the bike will handle and ride better with rims that match the tire width. The CR18 is ideal for 28mm tires.
