[RBW] Re: 26" wheeled Rambouillet

I have an 52 cm Ram, it has 26" wheels (as were the 50 cm IIRC), originally had a 54 cm that had 700c wheels. Sold it; was a bit too big for me, wheel size was part of the stand-over/fit problem. On Monday, August 26, 2019 at 11:51:04 AM UTC-7, Sean Ryan wrote: > > I came across a craigslist
