I received this hub with a bunch of others that I purchased as a large lot. I have no way of identifying it, and hope someone on this forum can shed some light on it. Here's what I can tell you:
14mm bolt on axle, weighs about 556g
Threaded on both sides for freewheels?
48 holes
Very smooth sealed precision bearings
Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.
[edit] Item has been identified, thank you.

Looks like a heavy duty flip flop hub for freestyle or dirt jumping. I can't ID the brand.

Hmmm. Appears to be 110mm. I'm hoping to get more info before I put it on ebay though.

It's some sort of nice BMX. One side is going to be standard BMX threading for freewheels down to 16 (15?) teeth. The other side is a slightly smaller threading for down to 14 tooth freewheels. These days you can get standard threading freewheels at 14t.

The axle is 14mm (9/16ths), not 20mm.

Thank you Jonny B. I just thought it looked about the same size as my 20mm thru-axle. It does indeed measure 14mm. Any idea what it's worth?
