On the way to work this morning the flange of my front hub failed in two places causing the wheel to lock. No accident, but, I was alarmed that this could happen with a hub that is less than two years old [3 ply laced] and now costs 90 quid new!! Anyone else had similar experiences?
I have an italian campag centaur, fag fitting. Probably 111mm £17.50 posted. This only had a few hundred miles before I sold my frame. It may not give you a perfect chainline but it will be less than 1% out which is nothing given the deflection a chain will tolerate.
looks like you have sold this but if not I will definitely take it if you can post, plus just need to check some dimensions:
1What is the head tube height
2 Is the seat tube vitrual or actual
3 Is it a horiz top tube, if not any idea what the equivalent horiz size is?
