i bought the wrong sized wheels!!

i bought the wrong sized wheels!! what do i do now?
i bought a set of ARAYA TM820/STX RC ATB WHEels and though that i was buying
27 X 1 1/4 wheels.
will these wheels fit on my fuji bike or on my univega bike which take the
larger sized wheels?
why can't the catalog say these are 26 X 1 1/2 wheels?

In a word, no. You won't be able to use them. Sorry!

hey, you couldsend 'em along here, I have a kid brother with a
birthday coming up...
he's 14, hasn't ridden a 'proper' bike (as in, non-x*mart gaspipe)
ever, and I figure he might ride more (and with me!) if I built him up
something from good, used, donated, etc parts...

[it also allows me to improve my wrenching skills, which is a good
thing, right?]

*big grin*

it's for a good cause!

Send them back?

Why would you think that? ATB = mountain bike. Anyone selling 27" wheels
is going to specifically label them as such.

No.

Umm, it said "ATB Wheels", no? ATB=All Terrain Bike=Mountain Bike = 26"
wheels.
