Default just a question

would using a tire with a larger diameter make the mileage on your odometer read lower then actual miles after time?

Im just asking hypothetically. I understand there are pros and cons and might not even work.

I think the answer is yes BTW.

Yes

I think because it takes the larger Diam. wheel longer to make a revolution.

Imagine pushing a hot wheel 20 feet.. now imagine pushing a 26" mountain bike 20 feet.


Mister Wizard chime in and use fancy words.
