Mavic 501 Hub - Broken Axle
I have a Mavic 501 126mm 32 Hole Freewheel Hub that has a broken axle. Any ideas on where I can obtain parts to repair? These are such beautiful hubs, i hate to cannibilize a know good one. I am not able to contact Mavic directly as I am not an authorized repair center.

They are beautiful hubs. Please let us know if you find a source for axles. I haven't broken one, but I'd like to have a spare rear axle just in case.

Yes I have tried to contact a repair center. I am in Mission Viejo, CA there is only one LBS close to me listed as a repair center on Mavic's web site. They have not been able to help. I have called a few other shops within 25 miles and have yet to hear back from them. Hence my call for help.
