purchased these in error..bought my Schwinn thought it had Helicomatic rear hub..has atom 77 hub ..got these cheap really had no idea as they were bronze color..and gold and silver (2 per wheel) oval stickers worn lettering..well they are double eyelet possibly tubular rims not sure..but Super Champion I think by looks of others seen on eBay..
Front- 36 spoke presta Normandy hub so marked on hub
rear- 36 spoke presta , cassette Helicomatic 5 cog (ten speed) 1" long spiral shaft 1" in diameter has Helicomatic sticker on hub..nice shaft cog go on/off smooth ..will need the seal from jersey..retainer there/ no tool
someone spent some dough acquiring these and maybe a Voyager or other Schwinn used these..easy swap to 6 cog but understand not very desirable hubs generally, rims yes ....matt brown finish this rim has small indent easy fix if you have that dent tool ..very high up on rim not affecting braking..surface rust around eyelets need oil I read..
nice set rims and very tough I guess ..hardened rims ..
700c size I prefer 27" for streets here ..not a racer myself
as for tire type I know nothing of tubular anything so do your homework on these...shout back if interested can ship if needed by someone here
