Mavic rear hub (unidentified)
I had to throw away a set of Mavic GP4 earlier today but kept the front (campy) hub and this rear Mavic hub (32H). I'm not very familiar with French components. Is it a Mavic 500? 550? What's the difference between both? And what would be a fair asking price? I believe they are still quite appreciated on the CV Market, correct? It came with a French freewheel which I suspect to be a Maillard ("Made in French - Super Compact" is all I can read on it).

The rear hub is a 550, as it does not use the dust shield on the freewheel end, allowing the brearing to be placed slightly farther outboard, to better resist axle bending. I believe there was also some difference in the finishing. Yes, the Super Compact was a Maillard freewheel. Sorry, I can't help on pricing. Check the completed auctions on Ebay.
