    622 x 13 - DIN(?)

    Hello I have tried searching for the answer but I'm not having much luck, probably my fault. I have a ALESA 700c 622 x 13 - DIN rear wheel I wish to use for my single speed freewheel bicycle. 1. What does DIN mean? 2. What size would you recommend for a road tyre please? A chart or any...

    Vintage French randonneuer's and porteurs.

    Anyone know the lug set? Possibly a Lejeune Professional? The previous owner said the individual he bought it from said it was the original paint. But he thought it wasn't as the Lejeune transfers have no lacquer protection and as a result are wearing off. When I took the forks off there is...

    I think my chain ring is also 46t? So it sounds like I should be okay with a little bit of fiddling. Thank you.

    Lejeune - Reynolds/Campagnolo
