US source for aluminum ETRTO 635 Westwood rims?
Thinking of an alternate wheel set for my mystery 1930s roaster. Looks like they can be had from Dutch Bike Bits, but does anyone know of a US source? I read that the former Flying Pigeon LA guy sold some to a bike shop in Phoenix, but they have not yet responded to my entreaties.

Those flying pigeon once are long gone. I was looking for some a while back and only found them in Europe.
I settled for some SS normal rims I found here on Cambodia. I have them on 2 bikes, an 85 Gazelle Primeur and a Japanese market Bridgestone.

Those look very handsome! But my bike has rod brakes that I wish to retain, so I may have to get rims from Europe.
