Could anyone identify these hubs? There is a distinct chance that they are novatec or formula, but without the cutouts, just checkin.

To me they look like these with the stickers removed.
Snagged from yellow jersey:
47419

They look like Suzue Basics

suzue basics don't have the ridge below the spoke holes

they look a bit like Diacompes, but in silver and with hollow axles instead of solid.
the hollow axles make me think of novatec/dimensions, but without cutouts. The hub shell looks a bit wrong though

The bottom one looks like it has a "Velocity" logo on it though.

And Suzue basics come in fixed/free.

I believe you are correct

I believe you are correct

Yeah, but velocity used to source their hubs from formula. so what are these. They are selling new track wheelsets and I want to know what hub they are using.

I vote Formula HF.

axles are solid, spacers completely different? And they ain't sealed.

I think they are just an older model of Formulas the bodies look the same

How does that explain the hollow axle, sealed bearings, different spacers and new-ness of the wheel. I only got contacted about the release yesterday.

Oh I see now, I just re-read your post and it clearly states that those are brand new hubs that you just heard about (no sarcasm intended)

No, I just heard about the wheels. They are a new offer. Silver anodised fusions to those hubs in 28/32/36h. I don't see why they would laser etch their logo into the rim instead of those god ugly decals if they were trying t clear out hubs.

Did you try asking the people selling the wheelset?

This might help

Found em. They are made by Chosen hubs http://www.chosen-hubs.com/pro-detail.php?cid=1&sid=1&tid=47&id=207

And they are most definitely not formulas. They make a set with the old-school style oval cut-outs http://www.chosen-hubs.com/archive/product/p-3-207.gif

That still doesn't look quite right.
even without those oval cutouts, the flange faces don't have that beveled edge in them

I looked at most of the hubs on that site and still didnt see anything that looks like those hubs

mmm, but I finally got confirmation from Velocity that they are made by that company. Basically the cutout hubs without the cutouts.

... and cup-and-cone bearings instead of cartridge bearings.

so, they're basically like the quando hubs?
