wheel size advice

[anguskhan]

Hi i am total novice i am going to repair my bike as it missing front wheel the back tyre says 26x2.10 what size wheel should i be looking for the front would 26x1.75 be okay? i cant seem to find any 26x2.10 wheels for sell

would a 26x2.10 tyre fit on 26x1.75 wheel?

The wheel rim will accomodate different width tyres and a 26 x 1.75 would be fine and pretty standard whereas 26x2.10 is quite wide and less common.

so can the 26x1.75 wheel be used for a 26x2.10 tyre or i best get a 26x1.95 tyre?

The wheel will take a tyre in varying widths so yes you could put a 2.10 on the wheel which currently has 1.75 on.
