Tires are 30c, they usually measure out to about 28 or 29 when mounted so you can get them to fit on a lot of bikes.

Oh... hahah
I just noticed this bike is color-coded nearly identical to what I'm building atm.
-Blue frame (mine's a tad darker and alu)
-Black steel flat crown fork
-Black Thomson Elite 25.4
-Black rims, silver cranks, black chainring, black seatpost
Mine wont fit those tyres though I don't think. What are they, 35mm?

I'm thinking about getting a Bertin C56 but I hesitated as I thought it might use French fitting standards for the cranks and headset. But seeing this has a japanese crank, I guess not?

It does have french BB threads and an uncommon seatpost size (25.6 or 25.8 or something). The BB is a Velo Orange, they at least at one point had french BBs. Phil Wood also makes french BB cups and they aren't hard to find on ebay. The C56 is a great frame, probably the smoothest frame I have ridden so highly recommended.
