I believe its 26 inch. The rim is shot but everything else seems ok. You could cut the "tabs" off the fork and make a bracket to use on the rear...

Im still trying to find a way to run a hand brake so I can use the three speed wheel...rides suprisingly well with the small sprocket up front though...

Man, I switched the 3 speed rim off this for a coaster rim because the cables and shifter were in pretty tough shape. I still have the rim and shifter, but a little too late, huh?

I still think the tires you have on makes it look sweet!! Cool ride!
