No problem .
The ones that are concave are known as , "Weinmann Concave Rims" .
Most folks have forgotten that they made at least four ( 4 ) different Weinmann Concave rims .
Narrow or Wide
700 or 27-inch
Actually , if you include Schrader or presta , that would make eight , wouldn't it ?
And one of the older styles , the type with "bumps" where the spoke nipples seat are "Weinmann Allessa" ( Alessa , spelling ? ) .
And for actual model numbers , perhaps someone with much more knowledge . . . ?
