Sprint rim brand

[glenfield2]

I’m trying to identify the rims on a pair of sprint wheels. This is the only branding I can see. Is it a maker’s name? It’s not one I can find.

Possibly Super Champion Rims

Wolber pops up in my mind like freshly made toast.

Curious to know why?

Wolber. No toast for me thanks

I've spent decades looking at and repairing bicycle wheels.
This happens - you see a component and your brain does a "Google lens"

@Nob 's brain probably does too

As long as its 70s TT kit

I bow to your knowledge. The ‘Performance’ thing is just some bikeshop branding or such like then.

They were everywhere.

I bet @Guinessisgoodforyou has a few dozen pairs on bikes,
and a shed in the garden whose door no longer closes fully due to the quantity of Wobbly SuperCs on small- flange Normandy hubbed wheels

Large flange, cough..
The last pair went on a early 70s black diamond as the owner wanted alloy rims understandably.

Originally Oscar Egg's company, produced all sort of kit (mainly rear mechs) under the Super Champion branding. Eventually owned by Wolber and then passed on (complete with the remains of that company) to Hutchinson.
