Off the top of my head... something to do with Greg Walsh after he left Primo.
I think Joe and Taj moved from Primo to Coalition about the same time.

Think they (coalition) are on a bit of a revival at the moment.

Dunno much more than that tho  ;D

thanks, they dont have a proper website.  I picked up a front hub of theirs nice and cheap so was wondering about the company.  Havent heard alot about them.

aye they used to talk about "guerilla marketing" and stuff...

had the odd bit of product and ads in the Props dvd magazines as well. did some tidy sprockets. liked their graphics.

I think we have a NOS rear cassette to match that in the shop, although it might be urban camo as opposed to woodland camo...

This is a thread-on 10T sprocket, and it's also got 11T and 12T sprockets in the box as well.

Those hubs would look good on a set of the sun camo rims that were available a year or so ago.

This hub is sitting in the cabinet with a £99.99 sticker on it, but PM me if you want any more info or anything... :coolsmiley:
