  2. Wheel sizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_sizing

    Wheels with Asanti 28 in (710 mm) rims on a police Hummer H2 car. The wheel size is the size designation of a wheel given by its diameter, width, and offset. The diameter of the wheel is the diameter of the cylindrical surface on which the tire bead rides. The width is the inside distance between the bead seat faces.

    If a tire size has three sets of numbers (15x6.00-6, 26x12.00-12, 31x15.50-15), then the first number (26x12.00-12) is the approximate tire diameter in inches, the second number (26x12.00-12) is the approximate width in inches, and the third number (26x12.00-12) is the rim diameter in inches.

    ISO 5775 is an international standard for labeling the size of bicycle tires and rims. The system used was originally developed by the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation (ETRTO). It is designed to make tire sizing consistent and clear. It replaces overlapping informal systems that ambiguously distinguished between sizes.

  6. 29er (bicycle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/29er_(bicycle)

    Larger wheels roll over obstacles more easily. The ability of a wheel to roll over obstacles is proportional to its size. A 29″ wheel, which is about 10% larger than a 26″ wheel, can roll over 10% larger obstacles. [citation needed] The larger diameter wheels have more angular momentum so they lose less speed to obstacles and rough sections.

  7. Bicycle and motorcycle geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_and_motorcycle...

    Trail can be increased by increasing the wheel size, decreasing or slackening the head angle, or decreasing the fork offset. Trail decreases as head angle increases (becomes steeper), as fork offset increases, or as wheel diameter decreases. Motorcyclists tend to speak of trail in relation to rake angle. The larger the rake angle, the larger ...
