Will a 700c fit a 650c?

Will a 700c fit a 650c?

The size difference between 700 and 650c wheels is very significant so there’s no way to fit 700c tires onto 650c wheels.

What is 650C bike?

In the early 1990’s, when you bought a triathlon bike it almost certainly came with 650c wheels. If you’re new to the game and don’t know what that means, the over-simplified short answer is this: 650c wheels are smaller than the current “standard” of 700c wheels.

What’s the difference between 650B and 650C?

650B was a popular french size for tandems, cargo bikes, gravel road touring bikes and in recent years has taken over the mountain bike world. 650C is usually only used on smaller road bikes and TT bikes, and there are no off-road tires made in the size that I’m aware of.

WHAT IS 650c wheel size?

Stiffness & Comfort – 650c wheels use smaller diameter (and thus stiffer) rims than 700c and are often built with shorter (stiffer) spokes. In general, this can make a 650c wheel a bit stiffer than the same model in 700c.

Are 650B and 650c interchangeable?

Don’t ask me why 650b is considered okay while 650c is not. The two sizes are so close that I’ll bet nobody could tell a difference in a double-blind study (yet they’re different enough that their tires aren’t interchangeable).
