Subject: [CR]Chinese 3 speeds?

Would anyone know of a North American importer or distributor for Flying Pigeon or any of the other Chinese 3 speeds with 28" wheels? I want to make 2 Raleigh Tourists rideable. Currently their rims are corroded beyond use, though they could be re-chroming candidates. It might be cheaper to purchase a Chinese three speed.

Yes, I know some purists will scream about this, but I'm merely looking to make one of these old bikes rideable for my daughter. She's taken a fancy to the women's model.
