Martl, you my friend have a HECK of an eye! I never would have noticed the size difference had you not mentioned it!!

The rear is 1/2" longer than the front! What is that all about?? (Front cable is off due to rott and a completely shattered casing)

700C wheels, so is that a frame geometry thing?
What do you know about them using different sized calipers?
Either way, very, very impressive eye that you've got
