NOS Vintage 26 Balloon Tire Bicycle Drop Center Rims Shelby Elgin Schwinn

  

THESE RIMS HAVE LIGHT OXIDIZATION, SCRATCHES AND MANUFACTURES MARKS BUT ARE PERFECT FOR PAINTING OR A RIDER COLLECTABLE ORIGINAL. These rims will actually clean up very nice looking but it is recommended to wax them for protection. The spokes holes are large enough for.

080 (14 gage) or you can drill them to. 105 (12 gage) spoke nipples easily. These rim were custom made back in the late 1980's and have very good quality chrome.

The old style drop center looks just like the prewar and early postwar drop center rims. A very nice looking set of rims and WILL BE NO MORE ONCE MY INVENTORY GOES TO ZERO BECAUSE THE TOOLING IS NOW PART OF A NEW BICYCLE FRAME OR SOMETHING COOL I HOPE.

These are old stock UNUSED and when they are gone they will no longer be available. I CLEANED ONE FOR THE PICTURES USING 00 STEEL WOOL AND THE RIM SHINED UP NICELY BUT I WAS TOLD CHEMICALS WORK BETTER. When you done you can go to the cart and pay for them all at one time.
