Welsh, cheeky fooker. :LolLolLolLol:

They are relatively rare hubs, the helicomatic freewheel can (as Ash says) only be used with Helicomatic hubs due to the fact they do not have a thread on the hub/freewheel, they have a twisted spline setup.

Very nice hubs and freewheels though, they were standard on Yamaha's (and I have them on my Yamaha) and some Peugeot's BITD.
