I know there are a few threads around this topic, but I couldn't find a conclusive answer.
I'm refurbishing an old racer that currently has 26" wheels. I intend to fit a pair of 700 x 23, but i'm not sure I'll have enough clearance at the fork.
It depends on tyres, I'm sure, but can anyone tell me roughly how much wider a 700c wheel is than a 26"? I have around an inch clearance at the fork, at present. Will 700's fit?
Thanks.
