Hello everyone, well i found a 26x1 3/8" coasting wheel to replace the broken 3 speed on my Kmart all-pro. http://ratrodbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=7398 However, it came with a whole bike :) Guy at the flea market hemed, and hawed about the price and finally said "ehh $15" i said... "SOLD!" and ran before he could change his mind. Im probably going to keep this one as is, and worry about the rear tire for the all-pro later ;)

My new Ross Eurotour :) ....... lesson learned dont just pump up a flea market bike tire and start riding. They will explode! I thought i had been shot, it was so loud! lol

My "First Ride Rule" is:

Never ride a bike any further than you're willing to walk it back home.

There's just too much you don't know at first-the handlebars might be stripped, the chain weak and about to break, etc, but it seems like blowing a tire is the most common event.
