<< I've got a wheel with a Maillard low flange rear hub (mid-1980's vintage) and it needs a rear axle. This is just your basic Maillard hub and not the 700 (?) or evil Helicomatic. I have all the spacers and looking for a NOS or decent used axle. Would even take a complete used hub if it has a usable axle. Oh yeah...it's six speed spacing. Any help would be appreciated! >>

Well, Jim, you're in luck. In a blatent display on un-Frenchness Maillard used a normal 10x1 rear axle, obtainable at any LBS without using any foreign language or international mail. Phil Brown In scorching NOHo, Ca.
