The rims are sturmey archer, the hubs have a marking on them I do not know?

Here's illustration of that hub image:

Can 700c tube be used in a 27” ?

 

[J-wagon]

700c = 622 iso, your 27" probly 630 iso variety so 630 tube more proper. But if you do hack job, stretch the 700c tube around rim and it will fit and inflate. I've used 24" tube on 26" rim.

Looks as tho the wheel bearing is held captive by the sprocket.
I thought I would get away from releasing all those little balls.
evidently not so!

I was assuming you unscrew the 2 pin ring first?

I have a few of those maybe?

do not touch two-pin ring

to use Atom brand tool it is necessary to remove axle locknut and spacer, then tool can be inserted

thinwall tools such as Phil Wood and Zeus permit removal of gear block without needing to remove axle locknut and spacer

gear block removes counter-clockwise

if you will be purchasing tool you may as well select a thinwall; at least five firms offer them

one simple technique is to place the remover in a beefy bench vise and to use the wheel as your lever

prior to remounting a gear block it is advisable to apply anti-seize compound to threads; available at hardware and auto supply stores

Thanks, I may already have that.
the bearings are completely dried up so likely will do the gear block when it is off.
