Quick question re tyres

Mycroft H · 2011-12-25 23:33:38

Will a 27x 1.1/8 tyre fit on a 27x1.1/4 rim? Second question, If yes for the above, will a 1.1/8 width tyre take the weight of my lard ass (13.5st?) or am I better off sticking with the 1.1/4? Thanks :D

Yep and yep. The rim should be narrow enough for a 1.1/8 but you'll have to run the tyre at higher pressure.
