Hey all...
Ive got me some alva wheels here that came off of my Gelfand. Can anyone throw any light on what theyre called and when they were from? Seem to be a very mild single conical, the alva logo is raised but is tiny and in the rear of the wheels... Theyre pretty big - 62mm wide, 65mm diameter. They have the same 'feel' of urethane as Belair bolts or wings....

Any info greatfully received: [email protected]

Like he said, Alva Conicals (not the same as single cons) and they would have been available in late '79. |
