Q&A: Old wooden rims

QUESTION:
I am having an 1897 Punnett Companion double bike restored and need two 28-inch wooden rims or as close I can get. Can you help?
Frank

ANSWER:
Hi Frank,
I recommend placing a wanted ad in The Wheelmen newsletter, which goes out to the members about 4 times a year. The Wheelmen is an international group of antique bike collectors and usually you can find someone who has what you need or knows where you can get it. You can find out more about The Wheelmen, how to join, etc. at this link: www.thewheelmen.org


Have fun fixing up that cool bike,
Jim
