Anyone have or know where rear hub cones could be found for a motobecane Grand Record of the 1973 vintage?

I needed cones for my Peugeot project and couldnt find them. I ended up buying a complete NOS hub on Ebay. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do...

I read here that you can use Campy NR cones. I think it may have been posted by T-mar. I bought the cones and never got around to putting them in the hubs.

Campag. cones would be a vast improvement over the Normandy parts, which are far less durable. (I have bent and/or broken Normandy axles and pitted Normandy cones, but have had much better luck with Campag. and even Sunshine.) High-flange Normandy Luxe Competition hubs do look great, and I have a set on my UO-8.
