I'm short and shopping for a new bike. I've found that many with small frames use 650C wheels. Are there any disadvantages to having these smaller wheels? I notice that triathletes often prefer 650C no matter how tall they are
When I install clincher tires, they often have a minor bulge. It isn't noticeable on the road, but I can feel it when the bike is on the trainer. The wheel is round, but it looks like the tube doesn't inflate evenly. We've got some tips.
A 23C or 25C can be used for almost all riding and road racing. But using narrow tires in time trials certainly isn't unusual. What would do our experts recommend.
