Are 700 and 622 tires the same?
29″ (ISO size 622) is actually the same rim diameter as 700C, although most 29″ tires will not fit 700C road rims because they’re too wide.

What is a 28 inch bicycle tire?
Tires with diameters 622 mm and 635 mm are both classified as 28 inch. Oddly enough, tires with an inner diameter of 630 mm are classified as 27 inch. These classifications originate from the time of tire brakes. In those days, the exact outer diameter of the tire was defined by the brake.
