Cone covers for Miche hub

Posted on
  • Hi all,
    I am trying to find some cone covers for Miche hub.

    Does anyone have an idea where should i look to buy them or which other cone covers might be compatible?
    cheers

  • your not the only one, after a quick google, other people are having the same problems.

    perhaps go to yout local Bike shop and ask if you can try shimano dust covers to see if they fit. or other makes too, if they have them.

  • unfortunately shimy ones are smaller than miche. they are around 20mm in diameter and miche ones are 25 or 26mm. thanks anyway :-)

  • They seem to follow Campag patterns rather than Shimano ones, try Nigel Scott http://www.campyoldy.co.uk/[URL="http://www.campoldy.com"][/URL]

  • for some reason the webpage is down. hope it will load later on :-)

    this puppy,messure the internal Dia. of the bearing race,half it then pierce the compas in the middle of the milk lid and run it round and round until the excess falls away.
    messure the axel (9 or 10 mm) slightly smaller would give a better fit and may even thread on and just drill the centre hole that the compass made =]
