My Rambler originally had glue on tires. It seems they would be a pain in the butt. How taboo would be to replace them with wooden clinchers by Ghisallo in Italy. I plan to actually ride the bike and not put it on a wall. Other parts will not be original either as I do not have the original handlebars and stem or the original pedals. I live in a very hilly area and want to add a spoon brake so that would not be original either. I have been told I could learn to shift my weight forward and skid the rear wheel but that seems like you would develop flat spots on your tire. It appears that there is a large data base of talent here so any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
