Suzue High Flange front hub
Not sure where this sits on the quality scale (in the middle somewhere?), but it sure is purty... It seems the BMX kids wanted their hubs anodized. This is chrome, so clearly intended for cyclists with better taste. 
I repacked the hub, replacing half the bearing balls with used but still shiny items. I also replaced the axle as the threads were a bit bodged. As assembled, it currently sits at 96mm OLD. I can rummage around for some thicker spacers. There's a total of ~12mm of exposed axle threads, so bumping it up to 100mm should be no problem. I only took a few pictures. Happy to take more. Not shown in the photos is a bit of chrome loss around the flange holes on the inside. I'll see about getting a pic of that. How about $25 shipped?
