Re: Der Steiner Rad wheels


<x-flowed>I have even more info on this wheel.
The wheel is an unauthorized copy of a Rader wheel prototype. There was only one made, and the designer was kind enough to let a friend (and vw magazine employee) take a picture and publish it. After finding out there as interest, the designer was going to produce them. Anyway, this gent in Germany saw the pics, and knocked them off. When contacted by the orginal designer, his lawyer and several other sources to cease production, the knock off artist basically said 'screw you'. So, as cool as the wheels look, i have issue with purchasing from him. Now that you have more info, please do as you wish. But, to quote Paul Harvey, "Now you know the rest of the story".
