Here'sa question for you.
Can you get alloy rims for old 26 inch Ralegh cruiser type wheels? I forget the exact size - 26 x 1 3/8 spring to mind from my dim and distant past. I idly thought that a standard MTB rim would work, but I see now it's too small.
I read that even at the turn of the century you could actually get alloy rims for some bikes.
I have an old raleigh 3 speed I'm perhaps going to use to tour the Black Forest, but I need to make it as light as possible for flying. I've swapped over a few parts for alloy (seat pin, stem), but my eyes keep turnint to the wheels - excuse the pun.
Anyone know if there;s a size that will work. I wondered about a 700?
