i've been searching ebay, the forum and google. so far i've
just stummbled upon a site with taiwanese rims that are
36h 650c, but are clinchers (plus there is no way to order
the rims).

so if anyone has any hints, leads or has one lying around, let me know...

Marinoni has some. More than one kind as well. I had some in my hand about 6 months ago and opted for the 32 hole instead

Ambrosio Balance comes in 32 and 36 hole drilling in 650 size

those are what i have and the only ones i can think of off-hand...if you called up marinoni and asked them what 650 rims they have in 36 hole drilling they could tell you...then you could try to find them if they wont sell to switzerland

Maybe sign up for classic rendezvous email list. I know some old sprinting rims came in that size. Someone there may have something or know where to get it.

Velocity Escapes are tubular and available in 650c.
http://www.velocityusa.com

[Edit: ok, only available in 28h. Damn!]

Sounds like Ambrosio's may be the way to go then. (Ambrosio's website also shows the Nemesis 2000 available as 36h Tubular 650c).
