I am almost certain that hub is really commonly sold under different names, branded with various logos (or none). SJS cycles did them a while back, think the BLB hub is the same, Ambrosio, System X ... yada yada.
So if so the spindle should be really easily replaceable. Is your shop not used to dealing with singlespeed/fixed? Really really bog standard hub. Good too.

This is a novatec, rebranded.

@broken_777 That's the one that BLB, SJS etc used right?
-
Yes not sure where you can buy an acle though unless a srandard threaded axle can be used.
-
formula also do one which has different (and more attractive) apertures cut in it which is also widely rebranded. I don't know if the axels are the smae. Or if they all actually come from the same factory. Its all 6000 2RS bearings, though. Probably.
This is the formula one.

There is a tutorial. It should be fairly straightforward once you acquire the right axel.

The hubs are great, but they're so widely available and reasonably priced that a new one is going to be much less hassle.
You'll need to replace the bearings (well, one side at least) to replace the axle.

Blb is formula
Sjs is Novatec,so is token. -
Most probably Nobody, unless you are lucky and some shop has an old planet x rear track wheel in the scrap pile.
I'd say try Condor.

Wheel Hub identification
Posted by
@90mile
Hi - unfortunately the rear spindle snapped last week. My local chap has had a look at it but no luck identifying the hub make or a replacement.
The hub has a wheel on it with a smiling spider in the center. Does anyone recognise this coz I could use some assistance please. (This is what happens when you buy wheels from a geezer.) That said they were good wheels with sealed races and although the rims (came with Remerx rims) are getting past their best, I would like to reuse the hub if possible.
Any information welcomed.
Cheers Marc
