I have this problem every week at work, no matter how often I ‘helpfully instruct’ (no swearing involved…) my dear colleagues to: “Just look at the darn metric size! ’20″‘ means NOTHING!!!!!”
We can harp on about how great the Imperial system is, but, actually, I think you’ll find, at the end of the day, it’s, a lot of the time, not very good.
I secretly hope that all this talk fo 26 and 29 and 700 will one day die out and we can use 559 and 622 instead.
Less ranty and more helpfully, according to the tyre-bible, it looks like you’ve got tubes for 597 wheels.
EDIT: just had a look at that link, basspine… no reflection on you, as doubtless Google is the guilty party, but it’s truly awful. Skip everything except the last paragraph.
