What is the price point on these?

Hi guys.

First off, I'll properly introduce the wheels and the Company that is behind them.

They are produced by a company that specialized solely in early type 2's. The company is called 29A. www.twentyninea.com (website coming soon).

The BD wheel is just the first of many projects dedicated to these special buses.

Retail on the wheels is $499.00 with the horn button, $419 without.

For a limited time we will be running an introductory special for $459.00 for the steering wheel with horn button!!

Colors available are black, Ivory, and silver beige. All horn button pushes (the center) are black, with a slight hint of brown to replicate Bakelite. Wolfsburg castle pushes will be available later in the year for the deluxe guys.

The goods are set to land and be ready for shipment in less than 10 days!

Gerson will have a full stock in Florida for those of you that are south of the border. We also have a distributor in California, Australia, Taiwan, and Europe. This should save the international crowd some money on shipping and duties.

More to come in 2014!

What is the spoke orientation while driving straight? Is it a- Y? (assuming the drag link is centered ok)

Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:48 pm

You can adjust that in your drag link...

Yes, it is a "y". Otherwise you would have a spoke covering the speedometer.

Hi Ken,

I tried to contact you from your site, but haven't heard from you so I try to write here :-)

I'm interested in buying a steeringwheel and I'm from Sweden. Who sells them in Europe?

Best regards, Niclas

Hi Niclas,

Sorry we have been busier like never before. These wheels have been extremely popular, and it's impossible to keep up with the orders.

In europe the main dealer is GDP!
