Bellows Replacement for Linhof Technikardan?

[LFLarry]

I was hoping to find a trustworthy source for a bellows replacement for my Linhof Technikardan?

I want to avoid blinding buying a bellows off of eBay if I can.

If you have a resource that you know provides a good bellows for this camera, please let me know.

Thanks

Larry

Bob will likely chime in with the official Linhof repair place, but another source is Custom Bellows in the UK. http://www.custombellows.co.uk/?LMCL=MqA6tK
I believe they were the OEM bellows makers for a number of camera makers. I've used them with great results for bellows for a Linhof Tech III to a Century No. 7.

I had new standard bellows done for my TK45 by Custom Bellows in the UK. You have to supply the frames. Cost was under $200 and it was pretty quick turnaround, less than a month. I also understand they are the OEM for the bellows for Linhof.

A Technika does not have bellows frames.

Well then, whatever the bellows attached to. I am sure you have a special name for them. I had to send them in to get my new bellows.

Sorry, thought it was for a Technika. The TK does have frames. The Technika does not.

Any recommendations on a replacement bellows Bob?

The factory one. It is a rather special design.

The Custom Bellows are an exact duplicate. I think Custom Bellows makes them for Linhof as OEM.
