Devon Rim Company is my only choice. Even after 3 years I could swap a wrongly bought rim -my fault- with them. Very good service, and if I may be so frankly- only Maughans & sons and DRC get to that level in the UK ! (and I have had my dealings with a lot of them over the past 40 years) breek m...

This drawing I scanned from the Cheval, a few years ago .

As long as those storys also involve beautiful people, white sandy beaches, endless Sunshine and good food (in random order) there's not much to worry about
