Re: [CR] Wanted - GB Brake Parts

(Example: Production Builders:Cinelli)



 Dale,

Yes, I have found no other references on the net to this manufacturer with the exception of a post from 2005 on anot her list from a women looking for information on a frame she had.  Sur prisingly, when I took the wheels in to a local shop to have them adjusted, the owner was familiar with the marque.  The short story was that an ex employee was related to "Clyde" so it looks like there is a very local ( to me) connection but I have yet to investigate further.  I would be h appy to snap some photo's.  At present the hubs are apart and I need t o chase the slightly damaged threads (5/16 and 3/8 BSC (26tpi).  I had a little struggle finding someone local with the correct dies to do the jo b but I did at a Vancouver motorcycle shop.  I hope to visit them shor tly.  Once that is done I can get the wheels back on and will take the pic's.

Regards

John P arsons, Langley, British Columbia, Canada
