Rear Hub

[PoweredByVeg]

Hi there all you fixie-single speeders

I'm doing up a single speed and need to source a rear hub.

Using your vast knowledge, where do you chaps reckon I could get a nice (cheapish ) one to match the front one pictured.

Used would be preferable as I like polishing things

Here's hoping, and I'll probably be on here again for more tips

Your hub has an unusual number of spoke holes...is that a vintage forged hub?

Hi WMB

Just a 36h Normandy, I'd like to get a matching one but those ebay ones look nice, just want a rear tho'.

Not in any rush so I'll keep scanning the interweb for a bargain

My mistake... i counted the holes on one side...

Must try harder.

Well, shouldn't be too hard, and the gubbins aren't hard to find either. Depending on how much you want to pay you'd probably find a matching Normandy 36h without too much trouble, road hub with good threads, wind on a sprocket, and voila, suicide hub!!!

More expensive, look for a Campagnolo high flange; cheaper then a Shimano 600 series would make a good match. They came in high flange for sure.

The SJS / System X / Planet X hubs would be a fairly close match and they're cheap.

Planet X one was out of stock, looks good tho'.
