Bikes: 2010 Torker T-300, with drop bars. A vintage lugged Mercier 12 speed. A repainted, rebuilt 1986 Raleigh Pursuit road bike. 1988 Panasonic DX3000 is my fave new ride

I have a pair of wheels very similar to this, but instead of a cast label my Pelissier hubs just have a gold sticker. The flanges and shape of the center part are the same shape. My Pelissier quick releases say model 1001 on them. My rims are the same Mavic Module Es. The rear hub is threaded for standard FWs, not the obsolete French thread.

My rear Pelissier hub came with 3/16 inch ball bearings instead of the usual 1/4 inch. As far as I can tell that's the design and not a mistake someone made years ago, since it seems to go together best that way.

The axle threading is a mystery to me! Can't find any replacement cones that will thread on normally. If someone knows Pelissier axle threading of the 1970s, feel free to chime in!
