I have a lightning handcycle. It's a lean-tilt handcycle trike. The
two rear tires are in desperate need of replacement and I can't find
them ANYWHERE! Does anyone have any idea where I can get 18"x1"
(19-400) tires and tubes? I'm desperate!

Here's one place. I searched "tire,19-400" to find it. It's a wheel chair
tire, from the looks of it.Mark at Poweron Cycling sells 18x1 tubes for use with schwalbe tires. He may
be able to get the corresponding tires

Paul: I have no checked but the best results I get are from the
Hostellshop.com
Might give it a try.

Thank you so much. That's exactly what I'm looking for. I'm not sure
how I missed this one on my google search, I used the exact same
search yesterday and couldn't find anyone who was carrying them.
Thanks again. -
I don't see it in the Hostel Shoppe catalog, but they may have it. If
you google it, you get stuff like: -

Thanks again.I've tried to contact these guys to no avail. I got in touch with Dr
Jon Franks with Lightning handcycles and apparently I've got a very
early model. It seems that these 18x1" (19-400) tubes and tires may
not be made any more. If anyone comes up with a dealer who has them I
will be happy to buy in large quantities from them. I'm going to keep
looking. -

trikes. http://www.ice.hpv.co.uk/--

Harris Cyclery has 18 x 1.5" tubes and tires, and they also stock
tires for the birdy folding bike which is an 18 x 1.12" tire and that
should work. The URL is:Also, I take it you contacted the manufacturer of the Lightning
Handcycle and asked them where to get the tires? If not, here is
their address.
