touring rims, 27 inch, anyone know where to get some?

Random Vince

hi, i've been looking for some 27 inch rims, 36 hole, eyeletted for a while and cant find any

if anyone knows of a bike shop that still has some in stock then i'd be more than happy to ring and pay postage on them / travel to get them (london is travelable the gf wants to go for teh day )

i've tried st john st cycles, wiggle, crc, evans, on-one, planet x etc and cant see any on thier website (there are some on st john st but arent quite what i want)

if anyone knows any websites to order them off for me to try, or bike shops to visit / ring please let me know

thanks


ps, as i need to get them quick i appologise for posting here and in commuting, just thinking i might get a lead quicker

http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/category-27-rim-(630)-170.htm are the only ones I can find anywhere, and I've checked all the usual suspects.

Maybe try some custom builders like Mercian and Longstaff?

Give Hewitts cycles a call. They always get good reviews and feedback on this forum.

So they are still made. It's likely that some shops still have old stock. Try Spa for instance.
