I have a malliard hub on my wheel, for some strange reason it came fitted with a QR axle.
I actually rode it like that but had a few near misses, changed the axle over to a solid now, worked fine. All the cones etc went on the new axle perfect.
Mine is built into a seemingly all original period correct wheel,
a basic singlewall 27 1 1/4 aluminium rim. 36 graying spokes.
Flip flop, with a 1/8 x 1/4 20t sprocket on one side, and a 3/32 x 1/4 19t sprocket on the other.
I so far have not been able to remove either lockring, I dont use the 1/8 20t so id happily swap with somebody.
