Good Morning - well, it's morning here...
I am struggling with the task of finding the right tire size vs rim size for Rocinante (2012 C5 Teal). The front rim is 19 inches, the rear rim is 18 inches. That's the easy part, now comes the difficult: What is the rim width?
The front 19 inch diameter, by popular consensus, is 1.85 inches, but is the rear 18 inch diameter also 1.85 inches? If so will the Dunlop K70 4.00 inch width tire work well, or be squirrelly in the curves.
Dunlop offers the K70 in 3.25 and 3.50 inch widths in the 19 inch diameter tire. The 1.85 inch width will take either if the front mudguard and struts allow it. But the rear remains a puzzle to me - I may be a little dense minded.
All help is greatly appreciated.
