Default Any one know of the Alvo cast iron wheel

This wheel popped up on E-Bay. It is an ALVO. Any one know of the brand or this particular wheel?

The frame with that girder spine looks like it may twist. Any thoughts?

Tom

I've never seen one in person but have a customer who purchased one before he got ours. He was very unhappy with the Alvo for several reasons that I don't recall and ended up sending it back for a full refund. The seller paid return shipping and was good to work with.

For the life of me, I can't think who it as but if they are a member, perhaps they will speak up.
