"We break here to cover Maillard's product line in the classic era. Amalgamating several small houses into one of cycling's powerhouses of the era, Maillard made small-flange hubs under the M M Atom label, high flanged hubs marked "Normandy", track hubs in both series, a workhorse quick release skewer for both lines stamped "M M Atom", Atom freewheels of four five and six speeds both with splines and with two-notch bodies, large spline Maillard-Normandy freewheels, an Atom drum brake hub range for everything from Schwinn's Orange Crate to tandems and mopeds, and nice midprice pedals including big wide Atom 400s and the cute racy Atom 440s that graced the Raleigh Super Course. America was awakening to real bicycles and her appetite was enormous. Tens of millions of "ten speeds" landed here every year, many sporting that Maillard equipment which was the benchmark stuff in a crowded market. All that volume put Maillard in a position to develop new products for an industry long-sclerotic but now revitalized."

Or have you decided to skip the remover and get on to the removing?
