Belgium campag stockists

[Spiderman]

I am struggling to find a pair of cones for a 1991 Chorus front hub.
Whisker and Mercian do not have them
Hillary Stone reckoned Belgium shops stock Campag spares in a way that the UK shops do not.
Somewhere around Ghent he reckoned.
Any suggestions folks?

Ello,

He may have have Plum of Gent in mind:

Not dealt with them myself but most people
speak good English so you should be able to
email or phone them just fine.

My experience is that a lot of shops tend to chuck
out 'obsolete' stuff, but you may be lucky and
come across the odd hoarder. It can be a bit of work though.
Good luck,

Johnny

I was in Ghent last month, Plum do still have some old stock. Not only do they speak English but there's also an English man that works there.

None of the campy distributors hold any NOS campy stock. I think this is a shame but I suppose it there way of selling new groupsets.

I hope you find this cone. When I go abroad I will be sure to drop into any bike shops I see to pick up NOS stock. Keep the faith recently I turned a new Ma2 rim after ust one phone call.

IIRC, 91 Chorus cones are the same as cones used on most front hubs in the Campag range up to the mid-90s and on Chorus hubs all the way until 98.

Have you tried CampyOldy? He has front axle/cone sets for £20 but am not sure which model they are for.

If nothing else comes up, I have an NOS Athena front hub going spare you can have very cheaply.

I also have a 36H 93 Chorus hub in good condition that is built into a wheel at the moment, but which is surplus to requirements.
