Subject: [CR]Regina Freewheels

I recently tried my first regina freewheel and loved the sound (probably a 70's oro 5-speed). however, it seems impossible to find new editions of this freewheel with a large cog bigger than 24 and less than 30. Wheel, i surfed over to regina's italian web site and found a complete spec chart for all their freewheels here

http://www.regina.it/syncro.htm

this makes me think that somewhere in italy they are still making these things - actually, the next page suggests that they are making regina freewheels in china - can anyone suggest a way (or mail order place) for modern freewheels (to restore a '70's raleigh, for the hills of san diego ...) ???
