To measure rollout for wheel size

Table 1 approximates the circumference of

each tire size. Instead of using an approxima-

tion, you can measure the actual circumfer-

ence of your wheel. You need a helper, your

bike, and a smooth floor with enough room

to roll the bike about 7 feet (245 cm) in a

straight line.
1. With the valve stem of the front wheel directly

over the floor Figure 22), sit on the bike.
2. Have your helper mark the floor at the valve

stem.
3. While you sit on the bike, have the helper roll

the bike forward one revolution of the wheel, so

that the valve stem is again directly over the floor.

4. Mark the new location of the valve stem.
5. Measure the distance between the marks, in millimeters.

If you can only measure in inches, convert to millimeters by multiplying by 25.4.

6. Use the result to program your computer, following the instruc-

tions on page 25.
