Will this fit a 26" rim? i have a person who wants to sell me a cheap road bike that oddly has 26" wheels and i would like to out these tires on

Yes my fixie also has a 26" rim and the thickslick fits just right. The tire will be very tricky to put on the rim but its worth it.

Update: Someone else took a look at the type of bike you have and he says it might be a tight fit. If you have 26" wheels it may work.Pictures are still trying to load - with the yardstick.

I think it comes in different sizes. 26" is usually a fatter tire. I think this is mostly for the 700c. I purchased the 700c for 25mm tires.

I have had trouble in the past with getting the tires to fit a small rim....they are wide. I would encourage trying it out at a bike shop first before ordering them. I was able to get them on my bike but mine were 700x28c. That is the smallest I think i would go. They were somewhat difficult to fit....and barely did at that!

Hi GylijaThey do curve around my 26inch wheel at the same distance from the tire all the way around.They are made of flexible plastic so could be adjusted.Check the amount of room that you have btween the tire tread and the under side of the front fork bridge and the rear frame bridges if you have more than 20mm, then with some adjusting of the gaurd stays, you may be able to make them fit, but it would be a risk, that they may not fit a 29 inch wheel.

26 is most likely a reference to the clamp size on your bars. Most are a standard diameter of 22.2mm which they do fit. So most likely it will fit yours.

Hey...If the tires are too big, my guess would be that bike has 24" wheels...not 26".

Well these tires were designed to fit a 26 x 1.75 rim, not sure what would happen in a fat bike rim, may seat the bead well with tire beads so wide in that rim. But I would recommend the Surly Floyd of Origin8 has a good pavement 26 x 3.5 tire for fat bikes. The guy who posted earlier I don't think he knew you were talking about a fat bike, as his is a MTB.

The first question is no, this rim is designed for hybrid to mountain bike tires. The rim.is too wide for road bike tires.

I'm no bike expert, but I'd strongly caution against going beyond the 26'. The tube fit great, and still works without a flaw, and I can only assume it still works great because of the tight fit between the tube and the tire. Hope that helps.

By too big I'm presuming you are referring to the diameter. The tube handles a range of widths, 1.75-2.2 and beyond since I use one in a 2.35 wide tire so I can't imagine that being a problem. I would re-check the rim diameter and based on your information, I'm guessing you might find it is a 24" dia. If it is truly a 26" dia rim than the other potential is that slime accidentally stuffed a 700 (27.5 inch) or 29 in tube in the box by mistake. Good luck.

I purchased a 26 inch rim, and I use 26 x 2.125 tires, the tube is just a 26 inch, although I do add a puncture strip to the inside wall of the tire, and that helps with flats. As long as everything is 26 inch, you should have no problems. Hope this helped you out!

By the way this is for 9mm axle only on a 26" tire.Hi Roberto,Yes. It will fit on your bike. The steerer tube diameter is 1 1/8 inches which matches your frame tube size. You have to watch out on your front wheel hub axle specification (9mm, 15mm, 20mm etc...) though and make sure it matches too. I am enjoying my ride so far with this fork (adjusted to 140mm). Good luck bro and enjoy your ride as well!

I have a 29" bike but not with large tires. I am skeptical that it will work the way it should for you. I might look at some other models although most everything else is more expensive. I would probably not buy this rack again.

If you mean that you have 26" wheels you should be fine in terms of fit and function. The rough tread on a mountain bike tire WILL be a bit noisy though.

It should. I have 26er with 2.1" tires and there is plenty of width left. Only issue I had was disc breaks not fitting well (had to modify the unit).

if the sidewall on your old tires say 26" x 1 3/8" then yes. sizes for these middle/lightweight bikes were tricky as they use 3 or 4 26' size wheel and tire combos. I have a Schwinn, but it has MOCO or Murray rims, looks original but on a 50yr bike who knows. Good Luck...Mo
