Perhaps it might help if you wrote something which made sense in the first place.Pebble wrote: ↑12 Apr 2021, 11:44amthere was many different adverts from many different sources, you're wildly jumping to conclusions by assuming I was only refering to one. - which also casts doubt on the rest of your post, just wild speculation.531colin wrote: ↑11 Apr 2021, 3:13pm 700 x 30 or 700 x 47 TYRES won't fit under a dual pivot sidepull brake....... the (E bay?) vendor doesn't want to keep getting wheels back from people who have bought the wrong wheel, and the easiest way he can think of doing this is to say they are not suitable for drop bar bikes.....because a lot of drop bar bikes have dual pivot sidepull brakes. (The vendor isn't necessarily an expert in bike mechanics, or a native English speaker, or selling exclusively to native English speakers or expert bike mechanics)
I don't see anywhere in the advert saying what the rim width is? The 28inch in the advert is the diameter.
.(622 -18 would be bead seat diameter and internal width, but I can't see it in the advert ?)
So the seller is of the opinion that the rim width is suitable for 30 or 47mm wide tyres....NOT 25 or 28mm wide tyres which will fit under dual pivot brakes.
Be that as it may, I shall try to remember to avoid wasting your precious time in future. Please ignore anything I do write.
