Finally riding a big boys bike
So I solved my mismatched rim problem with the Cleveland by acquiring another one with an identical flat profile and removed a steel rod that had been driven through the finger joint.
I have discovered that Cleveland painted the rims black with a Cleveland blue stripe down the center line of he rim.
My current dilemma is how wide to make the blue center stripe. I hate to just guess at it.
I intend to clear coat it first so the paint will not penetrate the wood grain in case a future owner wants to go with a natural grain look.
