Yeah, I've been looking for a glass Aero lens for years, and would be willing to pay thousands! Zip, Nada, Nothing!
Good luck with that one. Ha ha ha ha ha!

Would a glass repop be ok? I may have a connection I know some guys here hate repop stuff, not sure if there’s a market but I know a guy with a press and mold

Repop is perfect. It’s for a 24” aero cycle. Yes, a 24” aero...

Are they same size as a 26” ?

My Aero cycle is 26".
Being that it's a 24" Aero. I would think the tank was made to fit that specific size frame and also the diameter of the lens as well.

It’s all hand crafted . The tank is aluminum, has the original bezel but need the glass.

There were some plastic lenses made, and a guy here on the Cabe that was working on a glass reproduction.
I bought one of his glass tail light lenses, and it looked so good, that I thought he'd get a headlight lens out for sure.
The last communication I had with him, he said he was having some problems perfecting it, and that he'd let me know, when he got some good ones made.
Then I never heard from him again.
If a genuine original glass lens can be had, then I've got a genuine original Aerocycle with a cracked lens.
I'd be very interested in a glass lens, if you come up with one.
