thank you for this confirmation

this is what expected from images provided

there were midliner models at this epoch which received Record model hubs, have had such in me workshop

if the cycle had been just a whisker later it might have received instead Sportman hubs which launched ~1961 and never got into a catalogue as they launched just after publication of Catalogue Nr. 14 of 1960 and had been superseded by the introduction of the Nuovo Tipo model with the publication of Catalogue Ne. 15 in 1967
