I think most modern MTB tires measure their stated width on a modern, wide rim (>25 mm external). I.e., their stated width is more like a "maximum" width on the widest rims, and a narrower rim will limit the size a slight amount. At least, this is my experience with Schwalbe, Continental, and WTB tires. They seem to be a couple mm narrower than their stated width on classic 23 mm MTB rims. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
