If anyone is interested, Scott at sexybikes has a set of the high flange Siamt hubs. He'd probably sell them.

FB also offered cranksets which were illustrated in a very lavish 1951 catalogue and there was also an article in 'Cycling' in December 1946 for what appears to be a splined BB axle. I have never seen one of these. FB cranks are quite scarce. I have never seen FB branded chainrings.
Attached copy of the patent plus images of Cycling article from 1946 and photo FB racing cranks (with TA chainring) ca.1950

Thanks so much for this information.
Regarding patent term -
In case they were able to file a patent in Italy - Have read that Italian patents were granted for a term of fourteen years and could be renewed once for a second term of fourteen years. So the final expiry date would be grant date plus twenty-eight years.

I am rebuilding, re-chroming & rehabilitating some 3-piece Campy G.S. hubs.
see https://www.flickr.com/photos/grande...7648665284563/
Along the way I found out that F.B. made those hubs not only for Campagnolo, but for anybody who asked.
A short list includes:
Atala √
Bartali
Bianchi √
Bob's Bikes (Bob Berghino NYC) √
Campagnolo
C.B.
Ciclo Piave
Frejus
Ganna
Legnano
Lygie
Olmo
Maino
Pinarello
Simplex √
Taurus
Umberto Dei
Viscontea
Willier
Wolsit
If anybody has photos of those branded hubs, please send them to me or post here.
Thanks

Attached are photos of an early FB hub probably destined for South America
As S.M. said: "That is not written in Italian but rather in Spanish so you can likely surmise it was made for the then-wealthy South American market."

it's my understanding that Simplex hubs were made by FB and made in France
by license maybe? I chalk it up to another thing I'll never know. pre-war records
are spotty at best and the truthiness always has to be questioned!
