Hello Graeme, and Howard, Yes I just did a reply but lost it. Sorry about the NZ contact I gave. Yes that chap in Bris out Wynnum way used to advertise in just bikes, used to sell blanks,( Saw him at Maleny Swap in March)and also narrow BE tyres for vet Dougs. My mate Des said he saw another mate Col R showing some blanks from NZ so maybe there is another trader over there , ring me if you want his full name. I am sure if they are made Aust or Nz there will be a huge price difference to UK prices. There is a chap up this way making split rims for vintage cars but so far we cant sway him into bike rims, but I will try again at the Nambour car swap in 5 weeks time. regards Al
