sigh, they do make them like that I just bought a new pair.

CCC person must have been 20 years old. (I love the CCC don't worry)

She most likely needs 26 x 1 1/2 or some other non-decimal width tire, (i.e. NOT 26 x 1.5). This is schwinn special english sizing, still very available.

mine were $10 each at river city.

best to bring the bike or at least the front wheel to make sure.

She took it to the Community Cycling Center and was told they don’t make ‘em like that anymore. I told her I’d dig a little deeper and see if any of you guys know something more helpful.
