Jack Taylor Tandem (1975)
We've been lent this by a friend, with the view to buying. Mostly original according to him and he's a fair bit of experience with tandems. Front hub seems a later addition as with handlebars, but 650b super champion rims, Lefol mudguards, Mafac Tandem Canti's, Campag Rally and T.A. cranksets...

So, we've been lent this and will most likely be buying it, however the rear seatpost is worn out and also only fits when shimmed. Obviously the shim has only been used for brief test rides.
The original seat posts are 26.0, would a 26.2 be enough or should I look for a 26.4?
