Hi,

Anyone come across these. I have a set (and they are very pretty) but I know nothing about them. 8 speed, 36h, but no level markings... though they seem good qulaity.

I've cracked the front one so looking for a replacement too (as well is info).

Can anyone help?

They are greener than in the picture...

Re:

They are campagnolo c record hubs in century grey finish. I have no idea why they would appear blue/green. Fading, discoloration, or something similar I suppose.
 
Hi. Thanks for info, but I think these aren't century grey. I have seen century grey and its a more grey colour! They were NOS wheels when I got them so won't be faded I think.

Will try and get a better pic colour wise.

Thanks

More pics would be useful. It's definitely a c record hub, and looks grey in the pic. I'm not aware of any other colours apart from the standard silver, century grey, and some gold plated versions. Havw they always been this colour? Even if they were sold as nos, doesn't mean they were, or were in perfect original condition even if otherwise unused. The definition of nos is used very loosely, especially on eBay :facepalm:
 
Hmm...it seems you are right it's a greener than usual century grey form early 90's. Apparently quite hard to find. I'll maybe try and replace with a similar era silver one. Get in touch if you have one. Thanks Foz & Retrobike .
