Yes they do. Go online and you'll find a similar model at either Target or Wal-mart.com, I don't recall which.newbiebiker said:Thanx for the info and i'll check that out. i was also wondering, do they make any smaller sizes of road bikes(like maybe "24 wheel size) or could i fit smaller wheels and tires onto a "26 frame? thx again for the info

well, I have about 775 miles on the Dawes, and while I was cleaning/relubing the drive train, I noticed that If I spun the wheel, the tire rotated fine but around the hub area, it was "wobbling"... so I guess, I finally hit what you were saying before... I plan to take it to my LBS and see what they can offer me...garage sale GT said:
I am not trying to be a wiseguy here, but I don't think you should sweat that. I have never had a rear hub which did not have any sprocket wobble, including a brand-new Shimano Deore. It's a minor manufacturing inaccuracy. It may have been that way out of the box. BTW, if the axle bends, the wheel may be cocked but won't wobble-not because of the bend.e0richt said:
I checked with a bike mechanic once and he said it could be the pedals...Seamusmcseoin said:
It's just the thin, high pressure tires. You need a kevlar belt. Too bad the Bell flat blockers are not available in 700c or at least never seem to be in-store.jcrarela said:
I think its pedals, and they are easier to test out than trying to fiddle with the bottom bracket...Seamusmcseoin said:
Yeah, I've put over 600 miles on my Varsity and I have never had an problem with flats.e0richt said:
ok... but if you start getting them with no discernible object embedded into the tire... you might want to think about rim tape thats all Im saying...Seamusmcseoin said:
Hey, you said you think it's the pedals...what about the pedals or what part of the pedals would actually make this happen?e0richt said:
I bought a Raleigh trail bike in 2001 and it's been clicking ever since, every time the pedals are in a certain spot. The seller went out of business but another LBS said the BB cartridge was probably moving around a bit inside the BB shell, and that it was no big deal. It's a very minor click though.Seamusmcseoin said:
well, the pedals have bearings in them and if they are not well made/put together you can get a grind/click feeling in them... I actually have a pair of pedals that i bought from a lbs that has that problem. I meant to take them back but never got around to it... I have read that you can repack them I guess but I have never really looked into it...Seamusmcseoin said:
I haven't read all 18 pages of this post, but I have a quick question. I saw an original Varsity at a garage sale yesterday for $60. It looks like it has been sitting in a garage for sometime and hasn't been riden in an even longer time. With a little work, I THINK it might clean up nice. My question is, is $60 a good price for one? They still have the booklet thing that I guess came with it. I was thinking of offering $40? But I wasn't sure...what do you all think?jptaguilar said:
