Ritchey hub cones.

I have taken the worn cones to two very trusted LBSs, who have always helped me in the past, even with Kona hubs, however, both said they could find matching cones for the Ritchey hubs.

I have contacted Ritchey on numerous occasions, for other questions as well, and have yet to receive a single reply.

I am wondering if anyone, especially LBS mechanics know a good source for these cones, or even know who makes them. I saw that Wheels Manufacturing has a "Taiwanese Compatible" cone selector, but I would like to confirm that I need those, before I buy the kit. They are definitely not Shimano compatible.

The rear hub does something very strange, it uses 9, 1/4" bearings on the drive side, and 11, 3/16" bearings on the other.

Thank you all in advance.
