The crucial measurements are the radius for the bearing race (to fit 1/4" balls) and the axle threading (10mm x 1mm for your Maillard hub). I'm thinking the most likely candidate would be this one:



Make sure the diameter (17mm) will fit through the hub dustcap. If the 13.8mm length of the cone differs significantly from the OEM cone, you should be able to compensate by adding or removing spacers. I wouldn't worry about a millimeter or two difference, though, unless it means your axle doesn't extend past the locknut.
