Title: French made Maillard Hub - Any good?
Post by: diesel on August 25, 2011, 09:42 PM

Have a silver rear one sitting in front of me - seems to spin nice and smooth

Are they any good?

I have Maillard hubs on my Yamaha Dan, pretty nice hubs those French guys make.

Is you hub a normal screw on freewheel or the twisted spline freewheel?
