Subject: [CR]Super Champion, Williams, and Sheffield Questions

Hello everyone, I have a few questions.

1. I have a couple Super Champion 650B rims, one is polished, one is not. Were they available at the same time? When did Super Champion stop making rims? Did Super Champion become Mavic?

2. In a junk pile, I saw a pair of Williams cottered 5 pin cranks with 2 chainrings, what period are they? Approximate value?

3. Nearby, I saw a pair of Sheffield (sprint?) pedals, what period? Approximate value?

4. Does anyone have any Schwinn Tandem tires or NOS rims to sell or trade? I have been saving the above Super Champions, but have decided to stick with the originals.

5. I have a Mercier with Simplex JUYRECORD 60 dropouts, someone cut the derailleur hanger off and mounted a Suntour derailleur with bolt on hanger. I would like to find a replacement dropout to cut the hanger off of to replace mine. So if anyone has one of these dropouts, on a trashed frame is ok. It is the round derailleur hanger for Simplex derailleurs. Or should I just leave the Suntour bolt on, on it? Or should I attach a Campy hanger?

Thanks tons,
