Spin Cycle

Received the following note from Roger at the Halifax Cycle Gallery:

I've got a Spin Cycle from Yarmouth Nova Scotia, basically a rebranded CCM. 
I've rebuilt the wheels with new spokes only to find out that there is no 
availability in 40-571, 26 x 1-1/2 tires. Do you have any idea where I might 
find a set of replacement tires for this classic old bicycle.

Any ideas? Wayne?

John and Wayne: If you look on Ebay in the UK you can find these tires as they have a lot more obscure sizing but double check to see that it matches up with the metric sizing as well. It`s kind of cool as you can find Raleigh Record Tyres 26 x 1 3/8 which is also kind of rare, not as rare as 26 x 1 1/2. I have purchased 26 x 1 3/4 CCM Balloon size tires from a broad and nice quality. Hope this helps. Real
