Help Needed Identify Rear Hub

Featured Replies

I need to identify this rear hub and sprocket from my new project. It looks a Triumph to me but not sure, actually it´s in a old James, a quite original bike.

Any idea?

Thanks for the help.

Hi Javier

Looks like Cub to me, 40 spokes ?

Edit - spacer more to do with tyre clearance issues ?

the sprocket looks like it has been 'spaced' out with the inner ring of an older sprocket. when you get a new sproket measure it up and get someone like 'sprokets unlimited to make you one up and ask for counter sunk bolt holes so that you dont have heads stiking out etc..

Javier,

Yes, its a Cub hub. You can see plenty of pictures of same on my "blog" as I'm rebuilding my Cub at the moment. The sprocket I use is made by Talon to take a 420 chain and there is 1/4" spacer that can be used. Both available from SM Products. Nice ride in the Pre 65 !

Hi Tony: Thanks, I had a look to your blog, nice Cub you are building, I presume the Royal Enfield comes heavier every year... I practice with a T90 Twin last year, but it´s too heavy for me, so I am actually preparing this James for next season although it´s not light at all, around 100 kilos with that very heavy frame, hubs and yokes.

Thank you Totalshell, it´s spaced indeed.
