Raichle AF 700 TS - spareparts?

Post by **MennoB** » Saturday 19 March 2005, 15:33

I have a pair of Raichle AF 700 TS.
I read somewhere Raichle stopped manufacturing hardboots, but the models were continued by a different brand???

Anyhow, who knows where you can obtain spareparts.
Especially the buckles ("schnallen") just to be sure I have some when they might break?

Same thing: where can you buy the cables for the F2 Intec Titanium?

Does bluetomato sell this kind of stuff separately?

I live in the NL.

Hi, Menno

Raichle is DEELUXE.

http://www.bomberonline.com/store/boots/parts.cfm

I know that in the Netherlands this shop sells hardboots of DEELUXE in wintertime, also alpine boards from F2, http://www.wimjaquetsports.nl/, so may be you can get those parts overthere.

Otherwise get them from bomber, those spareparts are light, so shipping will not be that expensive.

Greets, Hans.

Thanks Hans,

That's very nice, because Wim Jacquet is about 10 minutes on bike from my home

As raichle hardboots tend to have breaking parts on them, just go to a certified raichle/deeluxe dealer and let raichle send the parts to them. Until now the parts were always free for me, just shipping (around 5 Euros). So no problem, they won't stop manufacturing raceboots, I believe. There is not much competition left.

I got spareparts for my Raichles & Deeluxes at Bomber too, ordered extras (bolts, screws, soles, tongues, etc.) just in case boots will get discontinued down the road. Not sure whether BlueTomato carries spare parts for hardboots.

As said, parts are relatively small & light, and with the dollar so cheap it shouldn't be a problem (of course, the parts were probably bought by Bomber and paid for in Euros to begin with, so I'm not sure about the prices).

Good luck!
