This is a stupid question but I'm going to buy a trainer and my wheel is 26" (mtb), and the trainer specs say it works for 24" to 700c. What is the c stand for in 700c? It can't be centimeter because based on that, it would be approxmately 275" wheel and that's pretty big.

Quick internet research tells me 700c is 28" (or slightly smaller, depending on who to believe).  Sounds like the trainer is fine
