Men's Spaceliner - Any clues to determine wheel size from photo?

[bikemonkey]

Was everything scaled down for the 24" wheel version of the Spaceliner? I am trying to gauge the wheel size of this bike from the photograph.

Thanks!

Only a guess, but it's likely that the saddle is the same size on both 24" and 26" bikes. Of course, the saddle is often not original. Also, it's tough to scale off the small difference between 24" and 26" on a photo. Just squinting at that bike, the proportions seem to suggest 24".

I agree, it seems small to me...

Thanks to everyone who chimed in and it's nice to have a consensus! Using the saddle as the reference point on this type bike will certainly help me out in the future.

Can someone tell me what the diameter of the chain ring is on one of these? V/r Shawn

I just count the number of spokes.

Was thinking 26 but has very low profile tires?

Then I think that would be a 26" bike. V/r Shawn

I hate to confuse things but I also think it is 26" To me when a photo is taken of a bike at a slight elevation ( like this looks to me ) it makes the bike look smaller.
