    Matrix 750 rims?

    This is what the label on the rims says - anybody familiar with these rims? I can find no information about them and I'm trying to find out what the smallest tire size is that can be put on these rims.

    If you can't find the info on that rim, remove your tire and measure the inside width of the rim in mm. Then use the "Which tire fits safely on which rim?" table near the bottom of this page on Sheldon Brown's site:

    Oil is good, grease is better.

    Deb -

    OK - I feel dense - when you say the inside width - do you mean at the top (as opposed to down inside the curve of the rim) - from one edge to the other??

    The outer edge of the rim, but subtract the width of the metal lip. There is a picture on that web page.
