Title: HELP on Hutch Hubs
Post by: billycrabtreeomer on June 08, 2008, 11:52 PM

Here are my hubs that i use to race in the 80's .They still in good condition mechanically. I am thinking of having them made up to race OS again ha ha .
Is it worth doing this rebuild with these old school hubs or better to buy new ones . 14mm hollow spindle , sealed , threaded both sides for freewheel.
