    In the past bikes had wheel sizes that were easy to understand like 27 x 1,
    or 26 x 1 and 3 eighths etc. I am now faced with sizes like 700c 25 etc.

    What does all this mean? I guess that it is metric with this meaning 700mm x
    25mm but chat do the letters stand for.

    Any help as I am still in imperial measurements.
