I have a used bike that came with Velocity rims and some type of hub...just curious if anyone can recognize the brand/model.

Kind of crappy pic. Has kind of a teardrop shapes on the flange (must have spent time in the pen).

Thanks.

LOL...murphy's law.

After posting this thread I immediately come across a similar looking hub (I've been looking at various hubs for the past hour with no luck).

Could they be All City/Novatec hubs?

Looks like a close enough match. Even if they aren't, Novatec makes very good quality hubs for not very much money at all.

There's a lot of stuff floating around that is truly brandless, but yeah, looks Novatec-ish.
