If anyone has a 27" 1&1/4 wheelset that they would be able to lend me for a couple of weeks I'd be most grateful.
I'm going touring in June (corsica - anyone got any tips?) and am thinking of taking the old Claude Butler tourer I have. Problem is, it's kind of too big for me, though ridable, and it has 2 irreparably buckled wheels at the moment. I'd like to borrow some wheels and go for a few rides to see if I can handle this monster. If yes, I'll buy some 27" wheels, if not, I'm going to have to get a whole new tourer (hence not wanting to buy new wheels outright in the first place)(and yes, I considered touring fixed, but in Corsica?! I'm not nearly hard enough!).
Can anyone help? Thanks!
