Hard to tell , is It a middleweight or balloon frame ?
There's a member in the wanted ads looking for a balloon frame .

Isn't the WASP balloon heavy duty?

I usually measure in the back bone rite behind the fender stay.

Wasps are ballooners. The fact that the Monark balloon fender fits between the stays is enough to tell me that it probably is a balloon tire frame. $40 seems like a good deal for the package. GLWTS.

Right ,right , right, if you get a measurement, ? let me kno .

On the fly trick, measure the back bone rite behind the fender stay with a folded dollar bill. With Washington’s face on one corner and the 1 sign on the other.if the bill fits, it’s a Balloon .
