    Hi all

    Does anyone know what make of hub i have
    The hub looks identical to a hope but isnt badged up, the inner axle running through the hub screws together I’ve had it to a local shop but can’t shed any light as to the make of it, I tried to remove what I thought were 9mm QR adaptors but had to butcher it to remove it

    Any help much appreciated

    It’s a bulb (not a light bulb you divot)

    Bulbs still say hope on them. Front or rear?

    I was thinking BULB. They used to have stickers on them rather then being etched. Easier to remove.

    If the “Axle” screws together it not a bulb they use a one piece axle

    The front has a two part screw together axle. Later ones were etched, earlier ones has stickers.

    The bulb front hub qr adapters screw together, you put an Allen key in each end and unscrew it.

    Bulb front hub QR’s screw together. Normally use 2 5mm Allen keys to unscrew. If you look in where the bearings are you should see a cirlip groove for the 20mm adaptors.
