Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

25mm wide tires on 23mm wide rims? Measurements?

Does anyone have the measurements of 23mm and 25mm tires on rims with an outer measurement of 23mm and an inner measurement of 17mm?

It depends on the exact parts. Not all "25mm" tires are the same size and shape.

On the 17mm-internal rims of my Emonda ALR, the front 23mm Bontrager R3 Hard-Case Lite is ~24mm, and the rear 25mm Bontrager Hard-Case Lite is ~25.5mm. Whether that's representative of your case... who knows.

I would really be interested in the Ardennes + wheels with Schwalbe one tires
