Can anyone recomend some wheels to replace the knackered ones currently on my gfs late 70s Raleigh cameo? Dimensions are as follows: 120 mm spaced rear stays, forks are 110 mm spaced. Rims are the old 26 & 1 3/8 ". Would replacing these with modern 26" rims work? There is a lot of room on break calipers to play with break pad position if that is relevant.
I would like alluminium rims for improved weight and breaking over the original steel rims. Single speed would be fine, as would a hub gear. Frame originally took a 3 speed SA hub.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
