Need some help figuring out which rims to get for a 1948 set of wheels. The existing rims have gone rusty and the spokes look like they'll need replacing too. The tyres say 26 x 1 1/4 and the holes are 32, 40 (front, rear). I've found these on sjs https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/rims-tape/sjsc-26-x-1-38-590-alloy-rim-silver-40-hole/ .
Anyone have any experience?
No, not sure at all, just the closest match I could find so wondering if it would work. If I do need to get 597 size (26") rims, any idea where I could source them? They want me to replace the rims but want to keep the tyres.
