26" tire questions
According to Sheldon Brown, any 26" tire with a decimal size will fit any 26" rim, but narrow tires don't work with wider rims. That's a bit vague.
I have a mountain bike with 26 x 1.95/2.10 (both are listed on the sidewall) tires that I'd like to switch to road tires. Where would the wheel fit on the narrow/wide spectrum?
Would I have problems with 1.5 tires?
Would I have a noticeable speed penalty between 1.5s and something wide and heavy, like a Schwalbe Big Apple or CST Cyclops?
Would cruiser tires also fit? Does their squarish profile affect handling?
