I haven't seen any 597 rims, and all 597 tires are really low end. 590
is good, but not that much bigger than 584.
The International is a wonderful bicycle. What's wrong with sticking
with 630/622 wheels?

597 is a Schwinn tire, usually referred to as the S6. You can get
tires for them, but only low end 1-3/8 tires. Rims are hard to come
by outside of steel ones via Schwinn collectors, even then they are
not common as the s-7 (571!) which is one of the more baloony schwinn
tires. You can get
It's a money thing, but it would be painful. I'm trying to find a way
to keep one, which is preferable.
Thanks for all the info everyone. Besides my 59 Bleriot and unbuilt
58 Saluki, I have a 74(ish) repainted Raleigh International. the
raliegh is okay, I'd like to drop the wheel size from

I'd like to drop the wheel size from the stock 630,
but 622 is still a little large and the 584 is a little small, no
sweet spots in between. Is there a wheel size around 600mm?

The Trek frames are racier but the do feature nice low BBs and the rear
dropout is a true lug with the tubes set into it, as is the seat cluster.
Nicer, IMO than what RBW uses. The remaining Trek lugs are fine, but nowhere
near as nice as RBW. They also use more slender tubes. I loved my
And for the record, I agree with the sentiment it makes sense to keep
the Riv unless you have a real period restore in mind or something
like that.
