The rims that came with my Brum WHEELS were laced to Suzue hubs with a flip flop rear, and I am assuming they were original to the build. No idea on specific dates though.
Jaan:
Yep, been around since the 70's and were specifically designed for race :daumenhoch:

Callum, as folks have said already, they usually had a 15 or 14T frrewheel on them to swap at a track by just turning the wheel round. The smaller side is a metric M30 thread and you can now fit down to a 13T freewheel on them (Odyssey make one) so you can run a 36/35 front like my race RetroGoose has :daumenhoch:
And my Badlander before that :coolsmiley:
Funkyworm:
Ah Spen, Any excuse to post a picture of your Badlander ;D
