Indian-made closed-centre A7 wheel

[Tony Griffiths]

thank you R,

your customers experience, seams to be the only true one answered to on here so far.

when an item is being put down, its nice to know who has experience, and who is just giving an opinion.

i dont like the fact that the spokes are in the wrong position, rookie mistake.

but ive only really heard one complaint circulating.

perhaps im closer on price differences, and only one person has ever bought the overseas wheels. everyone else have used uk suppliers.

thanks tony

for tony griffiths.

i notice you started this thread.

did you actually buy any of the wheels yourself.

thanks tony

No. I was just curious about them. I do have some experience of Indian-made items from both the machine-tool and motorcycle worlds and wondered what the verdict was. From correspondence with people who have a wide experience of sourcing machines and components from overseas, they say that, in many respects, India is now similar to how Taiwan was in the 1960s and 1970s, with many small companies emerging that make a huge variety of items - the standards of which can vary alarmingly. No doubt things will improve for - as you pointed out - wages in Taiwan have improved enormously along with the quality of their products - and it's no longer the low-cost source it once was.
