Johan Bronkhorst Posted February 17, 2022 Share Bought a set of wheels, and nowhere in the description does it say 26", obviously assuming 90% of people buy 29", common sense means it should be made clear that it is not 29". Only in the left bottom corner it wheel size is indicated as 26". In my case the seller will kindly take it back, but everybody might not be that forthcoming. Lesson learnt.

Did you ask the seller for the size? Was the wheel size was listed in the technical description of the ad? Wayne pudding Mol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headshot Posted February 17, 2022 Share I'm afraid if you don't check something as fundamental as wheel size you only have yourself to blame. mecheng89 and BigDL 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume this refers to the technical spec. So it was probably indicated but I suspect as a potential buyer, we get so excited (I know I have LOL) that we may not immediately see the fine print.

Eugene Posted February 17, 2022 Share The opposite holds true. Found a guy selling a set of nice mtb wheels on Facebook. I send him a message asking him what size they were. He responds with... They are standard size wheels that come with a standard size bike. Headshot, RobertWhitehead, ChrisF and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
