    Worksman rim/tires combos

    Just picked up a Schwinn Twinn Tandem Mounted a set of Worksman rims in it with the factory tires, but I'm not feeling it. I want to swap the tires out, but have heard that the rim isn't compatible with all tires. A 26x2.125 tire is about all the frame will take. What tires are you folks...

The spoke holes in the hub are entirely too large, and the guy at my LBS tells me there are no bushings made to reduce the hole size. Short of welding the holes closed and...
