comment Will a bike stand that holds one wheel damage my bike?
Rotor sits clear and need have the front wheel in or else it could lean on the RD.

The bike I'm worried about is an XC mtb so running a wide tyre width which wedges in nicely, however even the slightest lean puts some pressure on the spokes.

comment What does the label on a tire mean?
All 40-622 tires are a standard size, if that is what your bike has on it now they'll fit. Yes, a bike with 40-622 tires will take other 40-622 tires. No, they're essentially saying the same thing for countries who don't apply to the whole ISO standard thing. Essentially one is metric, one is empirical and the other is French.

comment Is a bike faster than a car for the first ten metres?
No I believe cycle boxes improve safety. What I would like to know if there is any science behind my belief that cycles can be faster on starting and over the first 10m. I know power to weight ratio is stacked heavily in favour of cars.
