I see. Amazing how similar they are to Airlites. A little more rounded at the shell near the cones but it would be hard to tell without the markings.

Hi Iab,

So what are then these HF if not GS? Another bike with full GS groupset I picked up at the same time. They are Campagnolo hubs on Nisi rims with Regina extra freewheel, Campi QRs included.

Wow, never knew Shimano made HF too. Appropriate QRs from early 80s? Show me a pic of what are you looking for, perhaps have something in my pile of bits. Or can ask a chap I visited in north Italy, boy had he had everything ...times 10.

I don't know what your hubs are, but they are not Gran Sport, not enough holes. FB first made Campagnolo 3-piece, high flange hubs. The first picture are a set of 1948 FB. I believe they started production on high flange post war. I was told around 1953 Campagnolo started making their own, probably through a licensing agreement with FB. It is interesting the Campagnolo 3-piece low flange hub is distinctive from the FB but the high flange are identical to the FB.

So your hub is an oddball. I think I may have seen something a while back like it, but you don't see them often. It very well could have been made by Campagnolo, or some kluge someone did in their garage, I just don't know.

Campy Nuovo Record Hubs - circa 1974

Needing a good cleaning, but hey, they've been with me and in use since they came on my '74 Atala Record Professional. Good stuff.

Thanks, I'll have to research what they should look like.

Hi again, very strange indeed - I inspected the wheels and hubs are definitely Campagnolo ones. To stamp them correctly would have cost more than buying them anyhow.

I think they may be Nouvo Tipo GS, so later edition to the rest of the gear on the bike, these I believe came out late 1960s-1970s.

Sorry to say, I just don't think so. Again, I am happy to be wrong, , but anything 3-piece was GS, every other hub Campagnolo made was all aluminum. You definitely have an odd duck. Wish I knew what it was, but I've had the Nuovo Tipo and the Sportsman, both with round holes without the extra small hole. Always all aluminum.

Campagnolo "no record" Record. 1964 I think.

Not sure what make this is. It was on a Puch made Sears from the sixties.

Schwinn Approved DeLuxe from a 78 Superior.

Didn't Campy make something special for Motobecane in the early 70's?
Edit: Yes they did, but they have "kidney bean" holes:
