Group

I still have not found the Official Weinmann Company contact information using search engines.

The Raleigh dealer in Tempe Arizona didn't know if Weinmann had a reprehensive in the States. Weinmann Rims

mysteriously show up on the new Raleigh Bicycles. I would like to see what the choices are!

I have had a similar experience finding a replacement Cabinet Hinge, made in Germany. The Company was Blum.

Working from Phoenix it took months to make the correct contact, that was of assistance.

Thanks to all

Bill Hackett, Mesa Arizona

Bill Hackett made a reasonable request for information about purchasing rims and tires for a project that he has undertaken. While Robert Shackelford's response was valid (use the search engines..), Marcus Coles' response was precisely the most helpful in that most of us know about the use of search engines, but not many know about the connection between Weinman and Rigida. This information will help me in my quest for the correct rims for the several sets of older Campy hubs that are waiting to be built up.

Thanks, Marcus for adding that little piece of information to our collective knowledge. While Bill might have discovered the connection on his own through a search, the rest of us might never have been privy to this information. That's one of the great values of this list...

For Bill, thanks for asking. For Marcus, thanks for answering.

Dear Group

Weinmann company services appear to be none existent in the

States. Does anyone know were I can order a 700c Weinmann

CR19 Double wall Rims? Victoria Cross XG Pro 700 x 32C Tires.

Thank you,
