    Found this Tricycle at Salvation Army for $20

    The head badge says "Dayton - Huffman Dayton Bicycles, Ohio". It looks like it has been repainted though, as there are some over spray on some bolts. It doesn't use hollow hubs, rather it uses two front hubs and one coaster brake hub. And I know the handlebars/grips are not original to the...

    Fitting 4 inch (100mm) wide wheel onto Ruff Tango??

    I am trying to fit a 4 inch (100mm) wide wheel onto a Ruff Tango. The rim itself fits since the length between chain stays and seats stays is 135mm. However, the length of the hub from lock nut to lock nut is 140mm. And the length between the rear dropouts is about 138mm. So the hub barely...

    What size of this tire/wheel combo?

    Does anyone know what size the tires and wheels are in this picture? Also, where can I buy that type of whitewall tire? It's not listed for sale anymore on the Ruff site, thanks.
