Hey I forgot about the 200mm tire!

Oh and to add to my tire confusion...from road surface edge to edge my rear tire is 24 cm or 240 mm and my front is 17 cm or 170 mm. Quick someone measure a 190 tire and let's see the difference! BTW it probably should be a Pirelli Diablo to get a fair measurement. Oh and this is full of air...

Don't have a 190... or a metric tape measure

my 180 measures up at 9.125" = 23.2cm = 231.7mm

(yes, i rounded up)

Perfect! That means a 180 is approx 10mm narrower than a 200 which should mean that a 200 is approx 5 mm wider than 190. 5mm = about 1/4 of an inch. Of course THAT means that anyone saying my bike looks stupid because of the "wider" tire is full of shit and being a

How you gonna see 1/4 tire difference in a photo?
