Suntour Superbe(and Sprint) hubs were made by Sansin. both the cutout flange and solid flange models. I have Sansin 'pro training' double fixed hubs. they have different decals to the superbe model, not as polished either. they spin better than campagnolo record, and measure exactly 120.00mm with my digital calipers at the rear locknuts, very impresive craftsmanship
Gran Compe njs might possibly be made by an independant small Japanese manufacturer(Dia Compe used to make their own hubs), the Dia Compe sealed hubs are made by Formula.
suntour superbe brakes were actually made by Dia Compe! superbe cranks were made by Sugino, the seatposts were also made by Sugino.
