Bismarck

Bismarck, a very nice quality German hub. I'm not sure these huge flanges serve any actual function, but they look awesome.

From my Scapin - It came radial spoked, (bad juju). Had a local shop rebuild as 3 cross. Looks much better, and hopefully no cracks heading my way.

Not exactly vintage, but these Velo Orange Grand Cru hubs (aka Dia-Compe ENE) are what come on the Bianchi L'Eroica.

I've been collecting (mostly) high-flange hubs for a while now:


These are British Hub Company (BHC) Racelites:


BHC Airlites:


The seemingly indestructible steel-flanged BSA Continental de Luxe hubs:


Drilled Harden Hubs:


No discussion on high-flange hubs would be complete without the legendary Harden 'Bacon Slicers'. Here is a NOS pair:

Motobecane Le Champion (1972) version of the Tipo. Looks like Record but without the oil hole.

I have a couple of pair of Record's too. Here is one that was set up to run on my Langster:

Then the typical Tipo on the Bottecchia (1973)

Currently working on a Viscount with high flanged hubs. Mid-70's era with sealed cartridge bearings. Sorry no pic's of mine but here's an example depicted on another site:

wow! I don't remember anyone but the French doing gold anodized parts... pretty flashy! The flange cutouts are very novel too. Sharp corners generally aren't a great idea, but can be compensated by a thick enough flange. Very unique!

Nice collection!
BTW, what's with those dropout screws?
