Postby kenfyoozed on Mon May 28, 2012 6:05 pm

i was given a ladies Shefield Free Spirit bike. Now to bad of shape, but the tires are pretty much non existent. Would anyone know what size? They seem to very narrow. I know this is a horribly newbie question, so i apologize in advance. :oops:

Most likely 26 x 1 /38"

Have you got a photo of the bike? Is it a three speed?

Im assuming a 3 speed would have some sort of shifter and this one does not.

Coaster brake? It's still most likely 26 x 1 3/8" - take the wheel to a bike shop and they should be able to make sure about it.

Tire size for these bikes is labeled as follows: 26"x1 3/8" E.A.3. Also known as 650a. ISO 590.
it's all about the bikes, man. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=50053
I was going to update my sig line, but I'm not seein' anything worth plagiarizing right now.

Thanks again. I really enjoyed riding this bike around. I didn't think I would like the thin tires but I do.
