Rim depth

3 mm apart. Deeper is faster on the flat; shallower is calmer in crosswind and lighter uphill. Neither is simply better.

Internal width

25 mm

22.5 mm

The wider rim is built around a wider tyre. Match this to the tyre you actually run, not to the bigger number.

External width

32 mm

34 mm
