Interesting. This is the opposite of what I would have expected. But
I also wasn't aware of the misnomers for the two tire sizes. The
bicycle industry could use some standardization.

Jim, your posting style - specifically that you don't quote the message
you're responding to - makes for incoherence and discontinuity.

Henceforth, how about quoting (with an attribution) the post that
elicited your response? Eg:
