Neiman locks
« on: April 07, 2012, 03:02:21 PM »
After removing the Neiman lock from my forks, at the beginning of my R65 restoration, I cleaned and buffed it up to remove all the grime and tarnish.  While buffing the lock cylinder I watched as the tiny screw, that resides in the "slide channel" on the side, fly out and across the shed where it disappeared (probably) forever.  Ever since I have been searching high and low for another screw to replace the one I lost.

Does anyone know where individual Neiman lock parts might be had?

You might also try Model Engineering suppliers as they often stock very small screws.

Assuming the screw was metric then the sizes available are M1.0 M1.2 M1.4 M1.6 M1.7 M2.0
