  1. Yet another question.

    Does anyone know the ERD on the Try-All 19" rim? I've looked all over,
    even the Try-All website, and I can't find anything... Please help.

  2. ERD? I can only guess.

    Estimated rolling distance?

  3. Effective Rim Diameter, it's used to calculate spoke length.

  5. If you get the rim and do check it... give me the size and I will add it
    to the rims in the calculator.

    Cheers

    about right as Unicycle.com UK`s spoke caclulator says the Monty is
    358 . *

    Thanks. That equals a 14.1" ERD, which seems okay, but still a bit
    small. I'll try it, and we'll see what happens.

    I didn't define ERD because I figured if you didn't know what ERD meant,
    then you wouldn't be able to help me. But yes, I did mean Estimated Rim
    Diameter. And also, yes, I an using this info to calculate the length of
    the spokes I need.

    Roger: When I get it I will measure and tell you.

  7. I asked the people at tryallamerica (a try-all dealership), and they
    said it was approxamately 390mm. I'm gonna play around with the numbers
    and see what it gets me.

  8. I dont think 390 can be right... a normal 20" rim has a bead diameter
    of 406, and then the ~10mm, making -~386- the ERD...

    Maybe Tryallamerica gave the ERD for the front wheel of a mod trials
    bike. The front wheel is a 20" rim. The rear wheel, however, is the
    funky 19" trials size.

  10. Well, I finnaly figured it out for sure. I asked a local DH shop and one
    of the techs measured his personal rim for me. They are 365mm. Good
    thing I hadn't gotten the spokes yet. I'll verify that it's 365mm after
    I build my wheel, after which I'll e-mail Roger.

  11. That sounds alot closer, especially when taking into account that the
    bead diameter on a trials tire is 387.
