Mine
was budget, bought the hubshell* at a bike shop rummage sale , sent it in to PW Co and they pressed in a rear bearing/axle assembly..
the freewheel type 6 speed 126 .. * I suspect it may have been from a tandem front..
BITD Phil has their own disc brake , it screwed on the hub, left end..
A nickel steel tube with aluminum spoke flanges, back then..
rear would have been threaded on both ends..
Yea now just get Shimano Freehubs ,, trash the rim, you abandon it,
and get a wheel in stock at the bike shop and be back on the road again that day.
