Post by: nosepickben on November 03, 2012, 01:13 PM: Niiiiice. The axles look short, are they 80's race hubs ?

Post by: kev-s on November 03, 2012, 01:48 PM: cheers guys :daumenhoch:

cheers diggler but i prefer it with the 2.1 on the rear :daumenhoch:

yeah they are late 80's early 90's titan race hubs, quite rare apparently, the axles are a little short, the dropouts are slightly thicker than the ones the hubs were designed for, it dosent help that ive used 4 washers per hub :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:
