Small Bike Wheels

[sinner4]

Found a bunch of Small Wheels at a local scrap yard today. I'm planing to build a "Forkless Blike" in the future and was looking for the hub off a Wheel Chair to use as a front wheel hub assembly. These wheels look good but lite duty, should work for the front wheel. There selling for $3 each at the yard, and you pay for the trip in the U.S. They are one sided axle with no threads on them, Size is 8 1/2 inches out side diameter. 10 spokes per side, sealed ball bearings with no markings on any part. Was going to use the hub on a 20 inch wheel. I can get the front wheel and the side wheels, I believe these were for a baby stroller of some type, who knows.

That's a cool bike idea, I've never seen that style before. I don't know where you're going to get 20 spoke 20 inch wheels to go with those hubs. The wheels are nice though but as you pointed out, light duty. Might work well on a small trailer or a kids size Tadpole.

OOps I finally figured The Wheels Out. A 12 inch tire will fit..
