How do you determine tire circumference value on a bicycle computer?

In: Bicycles [Edit categories]

Answer:

The best result is what you get if you put the bike on the floor, with the valve pointing straight down, and put a marker there on the floor.

Then use a tape measure or a yardstickto determine the distance between the two markers.
