Mr. Hives from GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} X15 22.7.22. TOOL FOR REMOVING DETACHABLE RIMS ON DUNLOP WIRE WHEELS. This tool is not the required shape to detach the rim - it binds and jams, also it appears to be of too soft a material - the brinnel is 185. This is not the same tool as previously sent to us as a sample. GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} | ||
