Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

Yes, the tire width above the constriction of the bead is NOT a factor. What happens above that point has little or nothing with what happens below that point.

People concur or contradict, or elaborate on my posts all the time, and I never have a problem with it. But they don't directly put words I didn't say into my mouth. Also, you've had a recent pattern of badgering and belittling me, so special rules apply. As you know, I'd earlier PM'd you a request for mutual courtesy, and you basically told me where to go. So that's where I am.
