does any one know when gieppemme made alloy freewheels, (6 & 7 speed)?
I have just found a very grand cabinet full of the sprockets and spacers.
At first though they were the same fit as the campagnolo freewheels, but on trying them i find that they are ever so slightly different (although I will be applying the file to a 17 sprocket as i have a NOS campag freewheel missing a 17. They are very nearly the same. the spline seems to be slightly larger) The cabinet is a very grand affair. Two huge doors which swing out to reveal the inside covered in pegs, the doors too have pegs. When closed the pegs in the doors match the pegs in the body so sprockets are not spilled in transit. There is a handle on the top so it is probably a "race" mechanics box, show piece for a big team. If you think it would look good in your workshop then it is for sale. say $140 plus shipping at cost. Contact me off list please.
