Continental 'yellow' turbo trainer tyre - size?

[e-rider]

I have the "26*1.75" mtb version.

On the side wall there is a sticker/transfer that says 26*1.75 but moulded into the rubber is say 26*1.9

So what size is it?

 

[gavintc]

Is it important? Surely it will fit a MTB wheel designed for 1.75 and width is completely unimportant when oin the trainer.

There should be a metric size on the tyre as well - something like 559-??. This is the actual size of the tyre. The imperial measurements could be to any number of different standards.

Yeah, it really doesn't matter as it works perfectly well on the turbo trainer - I was just interested to know why it says two different sizes. I'll look for the metric size.

we need a new section.

perhaps below know how, we could have, don't really need to know how
