Half width front hub wanted.
« on: 01.07. 2013 21:29 »
Hi all,

Still going through all the bits of the bike I bought and have now found that the front hub is cracked in the brake drum. It's a 7" single sided one so I am on the lookout for a replacement. I would buy a complete wheel if rough as I intend building the bike up as an ISDT type machine so I am going to put a 21" rim on it anyway so no point in paying for a good wheel only to strip it.

If such a thing exists I would really like one complete with brake plate and spindle etc as I've bought bare bits before only to find they don't fit the bits you've already got and you end up chasing your tail sometimes.

Anyway thanks for looking,

Keith.

Hi Keith.
I saw an 8" on ebay the other week which did not sell, it was very clean and had new bearing; bidding was to start at £50.

If you have problems I saved the search, the hub was stove enamelled, very nice !

The above wheel didn't work out so I'm still on the lookout for a hub or a complete wheel.

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the offer but I think postage to the UK would probably be a bit high.
