36H was an option
Harden hub catalogue held at the V-CC library
and another Harden catalogue also at the V-CC library)
and quite clearly it was to accommodate those wanting to use the Continental rims
this is from the article at Classic Lightweights on Harden hubs
The CL article has useful links to the bearing replacement and an informative technical articleIf you stole that hub from us in Australia it may have been part of the single shipment of the hubs
With the hub spending some time in Australia, and the Oppy toe clips, this has a hint of a True Blue Riband

A few more things purchased this week. Some really lovely '30's Cyclo Oppy toe clips and I have a matching 32H Bacon Slicer heading to me from Aus.
I have a question regarding rims. Anyone know what they would have been using at the track in the early' 50's? Tubs or clinches? Some of the sprint rims I've seen are 36H and these are 40/32. I'm confused.
