Title: what hubs are these?
Post by: generallee on August 20, 2006, 03:59 PM

Ive just found a stash of these hubs - made by VALISUM - anyone heard of them? They are low flange,  10mm, 36hole, non sealed in chrome, similar in shape to old GT hubs, really nice looking. They say Valisum on the bearing/cone cover, and also in multicoloured letters [almost like little heiroglyphics] on the hub shell itself. Theyre pretty old school as they are just 16t freewheel compatible,  Theyre great looking, im just wondering if anyones heard of the make before?

They seem to be a general bike part manufacturer from Taiwan, no real info or read-ups about them but they look pretty
good. 

This is their website http://www.commerce.com.tw/e/045621311/

How much were they and are you selling them as I might be interested in a pair  :LolLolLolLol:
