Chris Paulsen Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Hi all-Can anyone identify this wheel? It is a 25 or 26" clincher rim. The rim is not dimpled for the spokes. The hub takes a splined shaft, but the splines do not go all the way through. The hub is centered in the wheel side to side.Any ideas?Thanks,Chris PaulsenMcPherson, Kansas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Maybe motorcycle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Paulsen Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 I thought about motorcycle, but the 25-26" size is large, and I have a pair and they are both splined.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMoneyPit Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I'm thinking three-wheeler motocycle - or early cycle-car. What size tires on a Brownicar?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Paulsen Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 Thanks for the input so far. All good thoughts. I imagine a Browniekar takes smaller and narrower tires. The cycle cars and motorcycles I've seen have 22-23-24" rims, with 28x3 or 30x3 tires. These rims are 25 or 26" and would probably take 33 or 34" diameter tires. Please keep the guesses and ideas coming.Thanks again,Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest prs519 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Well, you asked for it -- here is a guess/thought. If I were to build an electric car, what better way to drive it than this, with motor ala a Baldor polisher, and a differential device on at least one side?Perry in Idaho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
