On the wheel subject i noticed last night Marvic are doing a Campag five spoke replica but in various 18" sizes up to 4.5" rear and with tubeless rims. Not cheap at ?1800 a pair but a lovely wheel.

From the Marvic page, "Until the wheels maintain intact their paint"?? I wonder what country the wheels are being manufactured in?
Not that there's anything inherently wrong with Chinese manufacturers, the ones who make junk make junk, and the ones who make really good stuff make really good stuff. It's just that we have absolutely no way of telling which manufacturer is which.

PVM in Germany does classic rims, too. Though their webpage only list the front rim in 17 and 16,5", they do any size on request:

Friend of mine bought a pair and got it individually lightened, too, for his 500 Laverda project bike. very, very light rims, but in standard- trim not lighter than the GSX-R rims I think.
