well the calipers have been upgraded and I test fitted a 700c from my fixed gear to see if the pads would reach and they do. The wheels on there are araya and I have no issues with them I just want 700c cause I have a big supply of tires and a wider choice with that size. My plan is to go 700 so I can fit a larger tire than a 23c something like a 28 or 32 if it fits so I can do some light touring with the bike.
here's the bike btw
I installed new brake levers and brake calipers but I'm thinking I don't want to spend so much money on it and have custom wheels built if I can't find something cheap online or locally.
The bike is in almost new condition for an 88, the paint is shiny and only has a few scratches so I'm weary of selling it to fund something with 700s already.
