Hello,

one of my KN SLR 5-Star Split rims is damaged on the outer ring.
I would like to change the ring now. But i can´t find a internet page from KN.
I tried to source a new ring somewhere else, but its difficult.

Does someone have a good address where i can find a replacement ring?

Also i don´t have the center caps with the "7" as can bee seen in "chris rees" book on the SLR. Someone knows a source for those or has some of them for sale?

Regards

Christoph

You've done well to keep them going so long!

I suspect you might need to try blatchat if you've not asked there already?

Hi, i can not try blatchat as i am not a member.

Well i repowdercoated the stars recently polished the rest of them an refitted all with new nuts. But the condition is not as good as the pictures look like.

Hi Christoph, did you find a contact, as I have a slightly wobbly rear KN SLR rim now that could do with some attention

Hey,

no i got no contact. I asked arround a little bit but the repair isn't that easy because the edge is rolled arround.

In the end i found a cheap spare rim and changed my center into that.

I'm sure I've got a set of these in the garage loft that I've been hoarding for some years. Ping me an email and I'll check and take some pictures at the weekend.
