I have a frame and forks and what seem to be to be original wheels-I need a derailleur hanger which allows the wheel to sit far enough back in the dropout.What would work? Oh yes-and seat-post size? Thanks for help

Re: You’re selling it as a resto project so no need to clean it up.But the price should reflect this.I personally wouldn’t refer to patina - it has just been neglected and needs some tlc!
