Current Projects chat and miscellany

I have a Holdsworth Equipe which was my first proper bike at the age of 16 which came with 26 x 1 1/4 wheels originally. I still have a front wheel if you want it. However, it's a steel rim! I think you may have trouble finding anything else. I had a real problem sourcing replacement wheels/rims of this size last year when I built up the Holdsworth again and in fact I ended up fitting 700c wheels in the end- which just about fit the tiny frame. The only 26 1 1/4's I could find for it were NOS steel rims from SJS. I have a couple of tyres to fit these wheels as well but they are just plain old black. They are NOS and I have not used them. If you want wheels and/or tyres they are yours for nothing but the energy you'll need to get to London SE23 and back.

The rims, in steel are, available from the vintage cycle company. Think they are £20 each rim.
