Who Manufactured this hub?
I have an old road hub that I am trying to figure out who the manufacturer is. I am looking to replace the cups and cones but not sure who made it. The only markings I see on the hub is the partially worn off tag as seen in the attached photo (rectangle with alternating rectangles inside of blue, red, black, yellow, green). Anyone know who might have made this. Thanks.

Chances are the cups are not replaceable. If you have pitting in the cups you will likely need a new hub. There also are probably no cones available specifically for your hub. The QBP catalog has a large selection of cones though, and you may be able to get new ones that are close enough. Try taking your hub down to a well stocked bike shop (preferably one that has been around a long time) and they may be able to match your cones up.
