I have a pair of beautiful custom made hubs and brakes for a trike build. These were built by the late, great bike builder George Longstaff, and used heavy duty bearings with high grade alloy bodies and commercial hub brakes.   It may be possible to swap these for discs.

To keep a long story short, I built a carbon fibre trike for my A Levels in the 90's, but a friend destroyed the crank support in a crash.   The hub and wheels were fine, and have sat unused in my parents attic for far too long.

Price wise I am open to ofers.   The hubs and wheels can be seen in Congleton, Cheshire. Please message me or call 01260 270001 for details. I am only back in the UK a couple of weeks but my folks can show anyone.

Photographs will be added shortly.

PS great to see the organization going strong, it was very grass roots when I built mine as a teenager.
