Replacement tires for a 1967 ccm centennial duomatic

Submitted by chi3000 on Fri, 08/17/2012 - 08:41

I have recently aquired a 1967 ccm duomatic. The bike is in great condition with exception of the rotten tires and tubes. I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what size of tires are on it. I know one of them is original for sure. It says it is 26 1 3/8. I'd like to put some fresh white walls on it. does anybody have some suggestions.

If you live near Toronto, try Urbane Cyclist (www.ucycle.com).  They have a pretty good selection of old and obsolete size tires and their prices are not unreasonable on parts. 

Have a look at http://sheldonbrown.com/tire-sizing.html to get a better idea of what you actually need.
