Rear hub

Picture 1 has E5851 cast into it. that suggests a Triumph connection.

Looks very ES2 like to me! I wouldn't think it is a T*****h

Hi Istvan,

This hub is the standard Norton inter-changeable hub as used from 1932 onwards on most models, and was used post-war on several models on the back wheel only, until 1956. If you could send a photo of the other side it would tell us whether it is pre or post-war. All these hubs have an off-set and if you can borrow an original wheel that will be the easiest way to find the measurement for your particular model. If you are getting a professional wheel-builder to build it he may have the dimensions already, otherwise you need to assemble the whole hub, brake and drum, spacersand spindle assembly and fit to the frame to find the centre line. Regards, Richard.

Bonjour, morning, guten tag,

6,35mm (1/4") is for cylindrical diameter;

in the chromed rim, holes are 7,0mm aproxim.! (on MY bike...)
