Spokes for Nuovo Falcone

Does anyone know of a source in the US for these? Looking for 2 spokes and 2 nipples. Buchanan's has already been suggested.

No known source.  However, we have a guy nearby that specializes in vintage wheel reconstruction and he owns a spoke making machine.  Lilkely he can solve your troubles.  However, we would need one from you as a sample to work from.  He's a bit of a space cadet bag lady so I would NOT recommend sending anything directly to him.  You need a personal hand-carry intermediary.  I'd be happy to do that for you if need be.

Otherwise, surely the Italian vintage vendors can help and you should have a list of those.

Charlie,
Gawa Guzzi has them. He's in Germany and requires a wire transfer for payment. He is reliable to deal with. It takes a while to go thru the process to receive them.

I'd much rather ask for forgiveness than ask for permission.

Teo Lamers has them, but the gent that needs them was hoping to find something in the US.

Patrick: I'll pass along what you've posted and see what he thinks.
