26 back and 27 front. With the smaller wheel and using the old large chain ring the 3 speed hub gave me a nice range for city riding.

Having the small back wheel leans the seat tube a little bit and with the upright bars gave it a nice easy ride position. Just worked out that way.
You don’t have to spend a lot sometimes to get something that works for you.
