Hi all, perhaps I misled some of you, I know the difference between 26" and 27" and also 700c ...but I have been led to believe that when 700c's first appeared in the UK in the 50's? they were often called 'Continental 27" s' due to them being similar in size to 27 " but were they the same size as modern 700's and tubular or clincher...thanks to all who have helped so far.
