Anyone know if the 26 x 1 1/2 is a 26er tire or is that a 650b tire/27.5 tire?

26 and 1 1/2 is a 650b tire/27.5 tire but it IS NOT the same as a 26.75. 26 1 1/2 is and old English size See Sheldon Brown at http://sheldonbrown.com/tire-sizing.html. If two tires are marked with sizes that are mathematically equal, but one is expressed as a decimal and the other as a fraction, these two tires will not be interchangeable.

Based on the specs on the Continental site (http://www.conti-online.com/www/bicycle_de_en/themes/city/Allround/tourride_en.html), I believe the one you are referring to is a 650b (584mm) tire. I believe a 26er tire would be 559mm, which is the 26x1.75 tire according to the chart.

Make sure it is a 26x2.1 you are trying to fit. A 26" tire will fit any 26" rim but you have to watch the width. A 1.75 will not fit a 2.1 so make sure you have the right width tire. Match with the numbers on the tire you are trying to replace, they will be on the side of the old tire.

I am assuming the question is related to tire size, if that is the question, they are 26 inch tires for this bicycle

I do not believe they will fit because they have an ISO diameter of 559. 650B tires have an ISO diameter of 584. To be sure and to save you some trouble with shipping, try any 26" tire from a big box store such as Wally World. Return it when you've confirmed fit or no fit. BTW, I still love these Kwest Tires. 800 miles and still going strong.

The 26x1.75x2.125 will replace the 1.95. The 2.125 is just slightly bigger but will be fine.

You have the numbers reversed. The frame size is 16. The tire size is 26. The tires are not the 700c.

There is "NO" rim included, it is just the tire and if you are looking for a true 26 X 2.1 tire then look somewhere else. This tire measures like a 1.95 tire and when I contacted Kenda, Eric told me that's the way it is supposed to be and included a chart and insinuated that you need to be an Engineer to understand it, thankfully they're not the only tire manufacturer because I will never buy another Kenda tire. Sorry for a long winded answer for a simple question but I feel people should know what they're buying.

Hi George, It's really personal preference but I would stay with the 27 X 1-1/4. When running a wider tire than recommended it tends to move on the rim when cornering . On low pressure applications this isn't a problem because the tire flexes but at high pressure applications the tire can't flex and can break the bead causing a blowout or flat.

They are a 700c tire. They are closer to a 28 or 29 inch size but aren't meant for either

I take it to mean you're wondering what width tire. I'm running Marathon Big Apple size 26x2.35 with no issues. Don't know the limit on the narrow end but at 26mm it should take 26" tires down to 1.25. Most 26" tires range from 26x1.5 to 26x2.10.

Just Curious- If you want a tube for a 26x2.35 tire you need a tube that is 26x(range includes 2.35). Amazon's search engine will send you on a wild goose chase if you let it. This tube is not right for your tire. Jim

I installed a pair of these 26x1.75 tires on my 26 inch comfort/commuter bike. Installed and inflated, the widest part of the tire measures 48mm or 1.88 inches wide. That was a surprise because Continental tires have a reputation for being narrower than the label width.

Unfortunately 700c is not compatible with 27x1-1/4. 700c is roughly equivalent to a 29in rim. You will either need to purchase a wheel that is sized for a 700x38c tire, or purchase a new tire that will fit a 27x1-1/4in wheel.

The one I have is marked as 26x2.1 so its bigger. It fits on my WTB SX24 rim without problem. The SX24 rim can take a 2.0 to 2.3" as far as I have read on the internet. Your rim can probably handle a range of tire sizes also.

The 26 is fine but the 2.5 might be too big. We have 2.0 tires and they are a tight fit.

J.C. I just went out and looked at my tire. It is a B15. 170/80 B15 is moulded into the tire. Great tire rides and handles very nice.

Sorry I don't know the answer. tube size, I have several different bikes, I use is marked on the side of the tire. I am guessing by information that you should check for marking on tire itself. The 27 x 1 1/4 fits only one of my bikes and I fill them to about 100psi.
