Any idea what this might be? It feels really nice and it has smooth bearing action.
Came on an odd set of wheels I broke down.

No markings that I can see but a sticker could have been on it.

I'm no fancy hub expert, but it looks like what I remember the Ringle hubs of yore looking like.

Yeah, looks the same, but nice and purple. I did have two sets of Sun Ringle rims in with the bunch of stuff I bought.
Worth anything? I have a Shimano XT front hub that I fugured would be a better hub to build on except for the sweet bling factor.
