Crankshaft is 1 5/16. I just bought this and at Sears it's only in 3/4" drive, so you'll probably also need an adapter. Don't know about hub. -- Matt Liggett SysAdmin, ToolGuy, Synergy Leverager, Bon

Okay, then. 1 set 4 wire wheels. No tubes or tires. No guarantees about roadworthiness (i.e. I've never used them), but they look fine. Could use cleaning and paint, probably truing and a few spokes
