so finally got a Schwinn dolomite as an early birthday prez from work,it was on special + took advantage of a higher than normal staff discount so got a NZ$450 bike for only $245,I will customise it,but I want to put on the lowest profile whitewall tire that will fit the 26x4 wheel,tried my 26x2.125 and although it stretched to the rim lips it wouldn't piump up without the tyre pulling into the center,I want a really low profile look,I was thinking of putting in a wide flat plastic band in the tire to compress the inner tube and stop it from raising vertical and making it go out to the sides more?
