Hi

I've been searching the net for 26in MTB rear rims, ideally looking for a 19mm internal rim width but the sites all seem to give spec as, for example, 26x1.75. No ERTRO dimensions stated.

How do I find out the rim width? What is this 1.75 measuring anyway?

Any clarity will be gratefully received and I can top banging my head

I believe rim width only came into fashion with 650b & 29ers, so its not relevant with a 26" rim 😉

Yep Mavic helpfully have the internal rim width as the last two numbers of the model name

First number denotes quality in their range 3xx are pinned not welded and don't have eyelet nipples (maybe) 7xx are welded and 8xx are UST
