What training wheels fit this bike? The ones I bought with it won't work because the bolt on the rear tire is too short.

It's not made to have training wheels, not sure any this size are. Try going to a bike shop and see if they can change the bolt out.

The bike shop will be your best bet. It sounds as though you need the rim bent back to "true round" and if they can't they should be able to order you a new one.

Look at the metal wheel you want to put the tire on. There should be writing on the wheel, what size the wheel is 26x1.5, for example. Then you need to buy a tire for that size wheel. I can not give a yes/no answer. Or try to look up the bike specifications online and get ggat info that way. Good luck!

I bought a set of Eigth Inch Ameilia wheels for mine and they worked fine. Google it or go to Amazon and search. They cost about a hundred and worth every penny.

I am not quite sure. The training wheels act as a stand. Once they are off, I haven't figured out my options. Sorry.

It depends on two things. the wheel size and the way the back wheel is fixed on. Wheel size: the trainer is intended for adult bikes with wheels in the 26-29 inch range. It may fit smaller bikes down to 24" (child-sized bikes, but I'm not sure Wheel attachment. It is intended for bikes with "quick-release" back axles. These bikes do not have hexagonal nuts holding the back wheel, they have a dome-shaped nuts with a release lever on one side (the side away from the chain). The gripping mechanism of the trainer fits over this quick-release system. I don't know what would happen if you tried to clamp it on hexagonal nuts.

I simply attached the rear wheel by tightening the hand screw on the left side of the trainer. I did not remove anything from the bike to do this

I don't have a quick release on my rear wheel, and the screws that are on my rear wheel are so tight, I couldn't even get them to unscrew. (Don't know what I'm going to do when I need to replace the back tire, guess will have to take to bike shop!) Anyway, I was able to get the screws to lock into place where the skewer would go on the trainer, and it is really sturdy. You might want to try that.

You can go to your local bike shop and ask for a trainer skewer or find one on here. They aren't anything proprietary for this or most trainers. Steel Quick Release Skewer for Rear Mounted Trainers

yes. we bought this bike for our 5 year old and have never used the training wheels with it. They are just laying around the house!

They should work with that tire size but you must check the distance between the centerline of the mounting holes to the centerline of the braking surface on both your bikes front qnd rear wheels. These are short calipers and may not be long enough for your particular application. Tektro makes calipers in several different lengths and can be found on the Harris Cyclery website.

I had to adjust the training wheels slightly towards the back of the rear wheel to allow the wheel to connect more with the pavement. The normal placement of the training wheels do not allow the rear wheel to get enough traction for the pedals to work.

any bike shop should be able to help you find those. are you sure you need to replace the tire? usually just replacing the tube will do the trick unless the tire is totally destroyed. it should be a 12 in tire. like from a little kids bike.

I have a question ...I have a schwinn ladies 26" frontier f s bike. Is the Wald 742 training wheel a good fit?

I had the same problem and found out I had the wrong size chains. I needed them immediately so I had to buy from a local dealer. Amazon was great and took back the ones that did not fit. I followed the sizing instructions on Amazon website and they were still to small for my tires.

Typically your wheel size will be SMALLER than your tire size. For example, a wheel rim of 26x1.5 can support a tire size of 26x1.75. On the existing rim that came with the bike, there should be an inscription of the rim size. Since you are using a tire size of 26x1.75, I would recommend a wheel size of 26x1.5. Hope this is helpful. Good luck!

That's hard to say. The trainer includes a replacement axel for your rear wheel. If your riding a relatively modern bike with a quick release, it should work.
