Commuting - Commuter wheel size Poll

This is not a poll to advocate a certain tire size on a commuter bicycle. But rather a poll to see what size most commuters use in this forum. Thanks for your participation.

Wheel or tire?

Your poll is lousy -- 20" wheels. Think of all the folder riders!

Another folder rider- 16 inch wheels for me. Dahon Presto

Out of curiosity, why do you think out of 20 pages of commuter bicycle pictures this is not one single picture of a folding bicycle?

There, I don't see any folding bikes in these pictures. Just bikes with 26" and 700cc wheels.

LOL! It's sad that I wasn't aware there was such a thread. Stickied, too, no doubt. :crash:

That settles that. I guess I'll have to stop by that thread to represent.

Sorry for dissing your poll.

26 x 2.7". A bit bigger in winter.

You asked.

I have three bikes in a rotation, all with different sizes: 700c, 27'' and 26''.

700 x 28

26 x 1.25" Street Runners on a 2005 Giant Sedona LX commuting the mild winter.

27 x 1 1/4

My Trek 410 main commuter bike has 27"x7/8" Avocet Time Trials in front, and Continental Ultra GatorSkins 27"x1 1/4" (more like 1.1") in back. But somedays I take my mountain bike with Hutchinson Slicks 26"x1" and Ritchey Slicks 26"x1.4" in back, especially when I am using the Bob Yak trailer for hauling stuff with one 16"x1.75" tire in back.

26x1.5

26x1.4 here.
I have one bike for all uses

You have 650B as an option in your poll, but not 27"? Which seems more likely to you?

Anyway, in case you didn't guess, I run 27 x 1 1/4.

I ride a 56 cm SeaFoam Green Rivendell Atlantis with 26 X 1 & 1/3 tires.

Sorry about that, I should have respected the classics. It was not intentional. Is it possible to edit a poll?

Nominal 32-559 (actual size: 29 mm) / 26x1.3 (Continental Sport Contact).

26 x 1.5 (Tioga City Slickers)

27" x 1 1/4" on an old bianchi

24x1 1/8 in the front, 700x1 1/8 in the back.
