Josh Berger asks:

When did Atom, Maillard, and Regina first come out with splined freewheels? Were there years that they made both notched and splined? I need to know for restoration of a late 1960's PX-10 and a 1972 Holdsworth Pro.

I don't remember seeing the splined units while I still lived in Providence; left there August of 72. Of course, there are two generations of splined FW, too: small, which required pulling the lock nut and spacer, and big, which fitted over that stuff and usually was seen on the M1A1 Schwinn with full armor options...

I hope someone has better memory or Real Data
