Look Ma, No Hands!
I picked up a beat up Red Phantom a while back which had a front brake drum but was missing all the other brake parts and after chasing front drum brake parts I realized the parts to complete it will be more than the cost of the whole rest of the bike , so I decided to just fit a non drum front wheel and be done with it. I picked up a schwinn script knurled S2 for 5 bucks at a swapmeet but when I got it home I discovered that the stock rims were not knurled or S2s but had a more curved edge on the rims. there is almost no doubt that the rims are original to the bike so I guess my question is what front wheel should go on this thing was this an earlier Phantom rim , I have heard some early S2s were polished in plating which hid the knurling but I think these are just something else what gives?
Should I just lace my S2 script hub into the old matching rim?
