Title: HUB ID HELP
Post by: dordymush on January 13, 2013, 08:01 PM

trying to find out what these hubs are.
were fitted on a new gen dirtbike i just bought.
they were built up with a set of chrome araya 7X 36 spoke rims so hoping there something tidy.
sealed bearing under the dome caps that come off and the axle if slightly larger to hold these in place.
looks like there might have been a sticker on them at some time as there was a bit of sticky on the shells.
also theres a square in one end of the axle and a circle in the other end  :crazy2:
anybody have any idea ?.

Dave, i've seen these before, they are radioactive, won't do you any good mate, wrap em in foil and send them to me, I'll chuck em in the concrete base of this hadron collider i've been asked to build by some Swiss fella's.

Got some old grifter hubs I can send you in replacement.....

Something in my head is saying Seventies but i'm not sure. I know they did some S&M completes at one point.

...or maybe it's the dementia again.
