| Chris, what's this about? Are you actually wanting to sell-off an entire stash?, that's what it looks like. Geeze man, something like that'll ruin your day for sure. Besides, I look forward to your musings on this forum; I know a sell-off will put the kybosh on that. You better think this thru a bit first. alf in Davenport, Ia by: 63.102.218.182 |
| Gad... the only phrase missing is "must sell, getting married". ;-) R U OK Christopher? Mid-Life Crisis? We're all a bit wound up about this at the moment.... Later! Larry "Boneman" Bone by: 4.154.223.251 |

| Thanks for ther concern, my friends. I'll still be with the scene here. Reading here every day but I might be posting less and sit back and chill a bit. You know, just read. Other projects especially the t- shirt idea will go forward. Just selling off a part of the stash. "Stash" keeps getting re-defined. Trying to raise some cash and thinning things down. Don't panic I ain't dead yet, I'm still young and feel great. by: 66.51.146.3 |
| Does anyone know if Schwinn 26" x 1-3/4" (aka 47-571 or 650C) should fit a British bike from 1919 with what look like wide Westwood rims? Size imprinted on the totally shot tyres is 26" x 1-3/4" The owner is concerned that even if we get the bead seat diameter right, the bead shape might be a problem. by: 209.162.11.59 |
| Hi Mark, try asking Tim at The Old Bicycle Co, he has a website (UK) he keeps all manner of tyres suited to older machines. Matthew - still rolling by: 82.14.76.56 |
| I've got four different older makes of tires that fit the old Dunlop westwood 26 x 1 3/4 rims with no problems. They are all low pressure tires (35 psi) and none are Schwinn. According to Sheldons tire chart, they should fit but the bead might be an issue. St Johns Cyclery has options as well...http://tinyurl.com/ywu3zm In North America, try Urbane Cyclist in Toronto http://www.ucycle.com/ by: 24.224.141.224 |
| I have one tire. Very good used condition. Dunlop. Not unusual I seemed to collect weird size tires. Also a Dunlop Gold seal 28 x 1 1/4 as well. by: 66.51.146.3 |
| Anyone know the diameter of a Birmingham-made Hercules seat post? It is bigger than 1 inch. But not much. I'm thinking 26 mm. But I don't have a post to try yet. Thanks, Chris by: 71.135.60.59 |
| My B.S.A. Airborne (Paratrooper) bike takes a 26 mm post. You'll have to experiment by: 66.51.146.3 |
| For 26mm read inch and a sixteenth. Matthew - imperatively imperial by: 82.14.76.56 |
| Uh... 1.024 inches to be accurate to the thousanth of an inch. Or 1 1/32". 1 1/16" dia. would work. Though you may have to crank down on the pinch bolt a wee bit, aye? Cheers! Larry "Boneman" Bone by: 4.154.223.251 |
| Thank you. Now I'll get to work. That is if I can just find my set of Whitworth wrenches. Let's see, seatpost bolt is 1/4W. How odd... by: 71.135.39.176 |
