Default MOooooommmmm! He's at it again! (A TV1 question)

Everybody who's seen my TV1 trailer raves about the appearance. It really is a lovely trailer. Even if I didn't have a sailplane, I would still want the trailer for something, I'm sure of it. Nobody gets excited about trailers but I like this one so much that I'm going to eventually do a vid that shows how smooth assembly is when you've got one.

So........here goes.

The Yahoo group where they had (actually) discussed the bearings, brakes and wheels (see? I really *do* search) got purged. Which was one of the few places you could find anything on these.

Does anybody happen to know what bearings Knott used in the wheels? Bonus points if you happen to know which brake shoes fit.

Thanks for any help.

Dan, I managed to find the instructions to adjust the surge brake but so far none of the parts listings have lined up. I tried both the UK and German Knott websites. I'll PM the Blanik USA guy to see if he's got what I'm looking for. I'd like to replace the sealed bearings and get replacement nuts for both hubs. They are torque once, do not reuse.

If you find a manual with those part numbers it would be a huge help.
