Tubing 2fers Tuesday - Vintage Word - Tubing '74
unlike the bogus 'Speed' channel (aka 'turn-left'TV), we're all over 2wheel tuesdays (and every other day)
so in keepin with 'steel is real', and other long addicted 2whl-holic fixes, today's offering is 2fer the price of one.
Article 1 - How are Tubes Made? by Fred DeLong, Bicycling Aug '74
Article 2 - The Great Tube Controversy by Larry Burke, Bicycling Aug '74
a few of you might find some small glaring omissions/issues in the tubing chart...
And as antipasto for your vintage meal, a twist of lemon for your Dubonnet Red, some tubasti to hold the 2 articles together... a photo collage from a facing page. What article? What topic? who knows, but its 'right on' for the time, just another 'Summer of (2whl) Luv'
peace out

Interesting; I didn't know that Weinmann also made frame tubing. Thanks for that!
