What does 700C 25C mean?

Here’s the quick answer: 700x25c is the dimensions of your bicycle tire, using the ‘French system’. 700 is the nominal diameter of the bike tire, sized using millimeters. The next number, 25, is just the width of the tire (this is also measured using millimeters).

What size is 700 x 25C in inches?

On a 700c wheel, the diameter of the bead is 622 millimeters. This size is sometimes referred to as “29 inch” when it’s on a mountain bike. It can also (very rarely) be called “28 inch”. 25 is the width of the tire in millimeters (writing it as “25c” actually makes no sense).
