A favoured touring size in the fifties for our more enlightened continental cousins.

Which came in handy in the '80s when I needed a 26 by 1 1/4 tube in France.
One or other of the 650 tubes was near enough...

Two 26" wheeled Marin's in the garage

Ditto. Actually, there are three but one is the wife's.

My On One Inbred 26er - single speed - it's very light and responsive - a terrific ride at my local trail centre even if I get the occasional question "how do the gears work mister?" The answer is in my legs

I believe they are. Useful for Oompa Loompas. 29 and 27.5 more common these days

Eh, I rode 26” for 20 years and I am 6’ tall. They certainly aren’t for short arses.
