anybody ever encountered Weinmann snobbery , I was recently informed by an old guy 50's-60's club cyclist that Weinmann stuff was rubbish ( my wording his was far more explicit!)..I have always found it reasonable to decent stuff and going on the price attained on Ebay UK for the concave 27" rims (around£100) can it really be cheap crap?....When did Weinmann start?
