recognise this HUB

[nimrod]

hi does anyone recognise this hub please, it came with a bundle of A10 stuff I have bought but I have been told it is not original. I need a brake plate to fit it, 8 inch anybody have a plate, thanks N.

Short answer is no, but its an interesting hub.  Cast iron, conical, finned drum, front wheel, nice spokes and a flanged ally rim.  It doesn't look British, wonder if its Italian?  It looks like a quality bit of kit, any casting marks or numbers?  What size is the drum?

no markings what so ever, its an 8 inch hub. it came with a lot of A10 1955 stuff. the rear hub is defo A10 by the casting numbers.

I found your hub. Appears to be, maybe (because I know nothing about these) Norton Garden Gate Inter Manx. You can take the research from here, I believe.
