does anyone know this one ...

Hi
a couple of months back I bought a front wheel (just for the rim as old one was damaged beyond repair). So I now have a full set of spokes (not part of this posting) and a campag front hub.

I don't need the campag hub so want to sell it but don't know how to identify/how much to ask.

Picture below, the only clue on the hub is "Brev Camp" on the clamp (or rather the bolt, where the clamp goes through). Sorry, picture quality not the best.

thanks

Looks like a Nuovo Tipo to me. See

Not as valuable as record, but still a nice hub if the bearings are in good condition. Would polish up very easily.

^^ btw, are we meant to do "spot the difference" with your original post?

oops ...

Yes, looks like one of these. Found one on ebay (US) for £30+ without the axle. Wonder whether it's worth keeping/building into my TI Raleigh front wheel or selling ...

what's a good way of cleaning this kind of stuff up? Apart from elbow grease, of course.

The addition of some 'Brasso' (I prefer the liquid form) to your elbow grease will see that shine up gleaming in no time at all.

Knurled nut on the QR (no ring), curved QR lever and no oil hole = nuovo tipo IMHO

I'd try an initial go with some Solvol Autosol to get it shiney

Yes, Autosol works well, but I wouldn't leave it on for long as it is pretty strong stuff. Dab on and polish off quickly.
