    Those old wheels are 27”. It was an odd size and I had trouble getting tires even 20 years ago. However the ones that I could find were 1-1/4” knobby tires which are quite similar to gravel ties now. So they were far ahead of their time. But it also means that a lot of those frames are kinda junk today as the brakes are set up for those wheels and it’s hard to even fit a new 700c set of wheels.

    • @kgramckow
      @kgramckow 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yeah I’ve had a couple old 27” wheel frames. Surprisingly I could still buy new 27 tires last year (somewhat terrible hard “commuter” 27/1.25) but yeah that was probably very old stock. Most of them seem to work with 700c tires if you buy long reach brakes, and I had to drill out the brake mounting points to fit the recessed nut type brakes. After spreading the rear triangle from 126mm to 130 you can put new drivetrain stuff on it. Voila, dirt cheap road/urban/lock it up in a city bike.

It is quite simply, *stunning*. However it currently in pieces in the loft and I need to find a way to get it back on the road.
    Edit: should add it's not been left to rust. It's lovingly wrapped up and protected for when it will ride again. We put it up there when we did a load of work to the house but haven't had a chance (or space) to rebuild it yet

    A good bike is one that makes you feel like you want to go for a ride because you're confident that it will reliably get you to where you want to go safely and in relative comfort. I see a lot of cheaper bikes that seem to fill these requirements even though they might lack many of the questionable features that are being marketed on top end bikes.

    18:10 I partially agree with that, on more sportive bikes like road bikes/Gravel/Cyclocross, mountain bikes in most iterations where almost all have a diamond frame (except some fancy fullies) you don't really need these gender-specific stuff make these unisex with a wide selection of colours, however on the more "casual" bike styles like city bikes, trekking etc. they often have diamond frames and step-through frames (trapezoid with the top tube lower where it meets the seat tube already at approximately half the height where a diamond frame would or mixte frame with two thin top tubes) or even low-entry frames that only have one thick down tube without a top tube or these geometries like ISY bikes or foldable bikes have.
    Because these can be easily ridden wearing skirts and dresses, from my experience it's also possible to ride wearing these on diamond frames if they aren't longer than knee length and aren't too tight (like a pencil skirt), maybe have a back slit, but better don't try it with longer dresses/skirts and this is where step-through frames come in and this is also one distinction of most scooters (like the legendary Vespa) compared to larger motorcycles.

    It is amazing to think that with all the frame and parts and accessory options, new or old or a combination of the two, each of us creates a bike unlike anyone else's and that's no disrespect to owners who chose to keep their high-dollar bikes stock and ready to rock.

    A dropper is not good for "getting the seat out of the way" it's better for getting the seat in a climbing position/flat straightaway position. If you lower the saddle but rest all your weight on it.....your center of gravity is at the seat. If you slightly lift off the Saddle , your main weight position is at the pedals for handling of the bike. I agree about that suspension, it doesn't do a lot and most times they weight about the same as a Rock Shox Boxxer. You would have more fun with the 200mm downhill fork :)

    I never understand y people hate on droppers on bikes they dont own. I use a dropper on my cx commuter for comfy, safer breaks at stop lights and to fit in my gf sedan when i meet her at her job (20 ish miles away) to go out and eat and drive back. It prevents me from having to take off my seatpost everytime and ruining its saved position and alignment. Plus nicer to sit on a bike and warm up out of the parking lot when its slammed, luxury

    I can only assume that the ‘weird’ almost 700c wheel size is actually 27x11/4”…which was on ALL bikes,pre.1970’s up until 700c took over ,which was the same size as tubulars.😂 Nothing weird there!

    Jimmy, before they were banned pros used "spinnachi" bars at the front of the bunch.
    What do you mean when you say "sick"?
    Guys, what is it with the tan sidewalls? Whats wrong with "round and black"?
    Francis, you mean 27inch wheels.
    Pity you guys don't read the comments you ask for.

    And the reason the bike industry is awash in debt, is they have been falsely promoting a false narrative of 'Pimp my Ride' for the last 10 years. Karma can be cruel.
