I am now liable for the £20 return postage as I bought the wrong size tyres. am I being unreasonable to think that’s a bit cheeky or should the shear fact it was sold in inches be enough to alert me to the fact they were 700b tyres.
The breadth of ways of describing tyre sizes left me confused but I’ve seem them referred to as obsolete on this forum...
You are not being "ridiculous", just a bit cheeky.
