Measuring Instructions

  • 1 Measure the diameter of the existing tire, as illustrated above (D), or look on the tire for the size (it looks like this: nn" x n.n").
  • 2 If you find the tire size, the first dimension is the tire diameter, the second dimension is the tire thickness.
  • 3 Record the tire diameter, as this also represents the bike frame size.
