Cyclocross and Gravelbiking (Recreational) This has to be the most physically intense sport ever invented. It's high speed bicycle racing on a short off road course or riding the off pavement rides on gravel like : "Unbound Gravel". We also have a dedicated Racing forum for the Cyclocross Hard Core Racers.

Does it has to be a 700c wheel only? I'm talking about sanctioned races.
Sorry for a noob question, I'm just curious. TIA!

yes

I retract my yes and replace it with a maybe.
Your wheels have to both be the same size under UCI rules. No funny bikes.
