Anyone Remember the Huret Odometer?

Anyone Remember the Huret Odometer?
Anyone remember which pulley is used out of the two for a 27" rim? I do remember that one was for a 26" and the other was for a 27". See attached picture.


Thanks for your help,
J B

If my middle aged memory and basic knowledge of physics don't deceive me Use the small pulley for the 27" and the larger one for the 26". Then take it for a test ride over a known distance. I haven't seen one of those in over 20 years...thanks for the reminder of how simple life used to be

Funny how that happens...all my stuff is "old" I have only bought one brand new bike in the last 30 years...and I have 9 I much prefer the older stuff. I have never been one to need/want the latest greatest stuff. I wait for it to go on clearance sale at 90% off BTW I think I may have the advice reversed, Try the bigger pulley for the 27".
