Yes GregS those fit the old flat top 26ers. I bought a bunch last year on smoking clearance!

Do you remember what shipping ran you? I don't have an old 26" yet. At that price, it wouldn't hurt to grab a few, just in case.
Still need a 22” yellow

I got mine from Ace Hardwares website last year. They were $2.50 per grate and I had them sent to my local store to pick up.

Greg, that is quite a hot redhead. The beauty marks make her all the more special. CONGRATS

I think beauty marks on Red Heads should be called Freckles.  Great Pick-up.

i'm thinking i'm going to touch those up.  i have some super hi temp por 15 that should be a good match.

not that it matters, she's no show queen but she'll still like to look her best.  :D
