Hi,

I just purchased a cateye velo 5, and I need to set my tire size.

I have a tire size of 700x23 and the computer only allows me to select 700X 16,18,20,22,24,26,28.

How can i select my specific size?

Thanks in advance.

Just choose either the 700x22 or 700x24, it won't make that much of a difference at all. After a ride with a buddy, compare your stats. If your distance is higher than his/hers, try the other setting and see if thats closer.

According to the instruction manual, the 23c is on it. (210cm)

I always measure the wheel by rolling it out on the floor along a straight line (i.e. such as tiles on the floor) just to be anal.

Thanks, I didn't think it would make much difference. I just needed a second opinion.

Thanks.
