What millimeter size should I get? I've seen 42mm and 60mm, my tire size is 700x25c? Thanks!

It depends on the depth/thickness of the rim. Measure from the inside of the rim (Tire side) to the outside of the rim (where the spokes connect). If it is over 15 millimeters thick, I would recommend going to the 60s. If you are running an aero design rim then the 60 would be the choice. If you are running standard rims the 42 works. However, you can use a longer valve stem on a standard rim. But you could not use a 42 mm valve stem on an aero rim. If you do not know which rims you have or cannot get a rough thickness measurement go with the 60s it will not hurt running with the longer valve stem on std rims.

With a 32 tire, I'd probably not pick the 25-32 tube because this means the rubber will be stretched quite thin and the tube is likely to not last very long. I'd go with one that's 700c x 28-32mm. It might also be wise to Go to your LBS and get the right fit for your tires and go from there.

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.

On the bike I got, the tires were an issue. They are 700 X 37 or close to that. The tread is thin and prone to flats. I had 2 from thorns on the same trip. Bought tire liners and thorn resistant tubes which have helped. Definitely not mountain bike tires.

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.

Hi Hungryman, others may correct me, but I've rode both and while the skinnier of the two *may* a wee bit faster I'd opt for the 700X25 for the greater handling and comfort. In fact, my evolution of being an enthusiast rider for 10+ years has led me to choose nothing skinnier than 700X28 tires -- on wheels big enough to accept them, of course. Forgive me pointing out the obvious, but the right tire for you also depends largely on your size, your bike, your level of experience and your kind of riding (commuting, going for speed or going for distance, pavement, gravel, etc.)

The manufacturer of the tube determines the range of the tire widths each tube will fit. It is usually printed on the tube itself but can be faded. Just checked one of mine used for 23 width tires, and it shows 700x20/28c. The 28 is the max width this tube is likely to fit. Hope you can find similar info printed on your tube (maybe up to 32). Also, if you have to buy new tube, check the valve length to match your rim.They come in many lengths (36mm, 48mm, 60mm and more) and can stick out way too far or be too short to clamp pump hose on. Hope this helps you.

I mounted the fenders on a bike with 26 inch by 2 inch tires, and they fit perfect! If the 700c is the diameter of the tire, those fenders are made of plastic, and will stretch quiet a bit. I don't see any problem.

several choices - get one with schrader valve for 700 x 38c tire. The tubes normally fit several tire sizes so don't be alarmed if you see several numbers, as long as 38 is one of them. There are different valve stems too, but yours is a Schrader. Search for 700 X 38C tube Schrader. Hope this helps!

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.

That's the correct number. 700x38c is the tire size. I like these tires on my Schwinn Avenue hybrid. Very nice and they have worn well.

i think yes.i am using 29in tire size bike.700c is equivalent to 622mm or 24.5in.correct me if i'm wrong.

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.

20 mm inside 25 mm outside This means a good tire size would be 32-47mm Of course, you could theoretically go as low as 20mm, but that could slip off. I have gone as low as 23mm, but quickly changed once I had a wider tire. Source: http://sheldonbrown.com/tire-sizing.html

the 26 is the important part so you should be good. I currently run a 23 millimeter wide tire on a 23 millimeter wide rim so the width is fine too. just don't go any narrower.

Don't know about those numbers, but they're probably of no importance to the consumer. The important ones to you are the sizes and tire pressure. In my case, 700x42 tires, those are 622 (the wheel size for a 700c rim) and 40, the nominal tire width. As for puncture resistance, I live in major thorn country and average a flat about every 50 miles on most tires. I don't use the bike with these tires much (it's a rain/mud/shopping singlespeed), but in six months or so, maybe 1000 miles, I've had no flats.

7" - 7.5" would depend on the type of vehicle and what you use it for. These are great tires for all types of terrain.
