Hello,
My wife has a Trek 2200 WSD road bike. I bought her a computer and cannot calibrate the rim size to get a proper reading from the computer. When I look on the Bontrager rims they have strange numbers. Could someone help me figure this out?....
The rim says, 700C 622 x14, 650C 571 x14. I cannot figure out if this means it is 700c or 650c.
This really wasn't much of a problem until tonight she had a flat. Now we need to purchase a new tube and the tube that was in the tire is from Performance, it has writing on the tube that says 20-571 SuperThin. It doesn't say anything about 700c or 650c or the other numbers that are on the rim other than the 571.
The tire itself doesn't say anything except for inflate to 120psi.
I looked at my tires, I also have a Trek. My tires make sense they say 700c x23. When I look on Performance or any other site I can find tires and tubes that will fit these rims/tires. I tried putting one of my extra tubes on her rim and it is too big. Can someone tell me what this 700 or the 650 means? I thought it might have something to do with the diameter of the tire and it's measured in mm, is this correct? Any help would be great. I need to get new tubes for her bike so we can get back on the road.
