Anyone know if the 26 inch wheel on the original is a 520 mm?
Right now mine looks like a Dolce Vita with a 559.
I just need those dorky 300 mm crankarms. :-)

a 520-25 measures about 23 1/2 inches. I don't see how it could be called a
26.Check Sheldon Brown. Probably a 26-1 3/8. They are common.

I don't know the ISO size "Mikael Seierup" <[email hidden]> wrote in message -"]news:[email hidden]-

Nah, doesn't matter. I'm not buying a new fork and wheel for it.

Heh, good thing I didn't go with the picture of the sheep then. ;-)
Anyway theres not much to photograph right now. I need to:
Buy and fit a rear tire.
Cut down steerer a cm or two to get handlebars as low as possible.
Figure out a good seatangle and maybe brace it with something between seat and maintube to prevent
breakage. (As possible mountingpoints don't look optimal unless I either brace it, have it _very_
laidback or raise the seat a bit more - and at 69 cm already I'd rather not do that. Guess I should
have bought a donorbike with 24 inch wheels instead.)Stick chaintubes and gear and brakes on and connect it all up.
Get that bit of nylonstick from you for the front der.
