Geoff101 Posted April 14 Posted April 14 I need one, single, alloy front hub please. Westfield / Hispec only. Preferred new or VGC and complete assembly with bearings, studs etc if possible, but anything considered.

Geoff101 Posted April 14 Author Posted April 14 Are you sure? Hub, not upright. Westfield (and Hispec) sell them in singles with only one part number.

Geoff101 Posted July 1 Author Posted July 1 Needed more urgently please. Sadly I'm not currently in the position to be able to buy any of the complete hub / uprights / etc that people are offering. I just need one Westfield alloy hub preferably with studs, bearings, seal and cap.

Geoff101 Posted 4 hours ago Author Posted 4 hours ago Yes, I've spoken to them. I was hoping to pick up a second hand / unused one for a little less. Hi-Spec also have at least a 6 week lead time.
LoneWolf Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago I've heard some bad stories with Hispec uprights. Personally, I can recommend the ones RallyDesign sell, sturdy and cheap, got a set last month and they worked perfectly: https://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=1375_1594_1597&products_id=4356&osCsid=bvpq56g33tj0j170n8pg441rn0 Bearings: https://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=1375_1594_1597&products_id=14670 Studs: https://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=1375_1594_1597&products_id=4674
Geoff101 Posted 3 hours ago Author Posted 3 hours ago Interesting. I bought some Rally Design hubs for my first Westy and the runout on them was terrible. Perhaps they have improved? I have one of the Westfield / Hispec ones on the other side, so I'd prefer them to match.
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago I’ve found Rally designs own branded stuff to vary enormously product type, to product type. I’ve got their quick rack, and it’s been fantastic, really good quality. Other stuff I’ve had has sometimes been so poorly made/designed, they’ve taken it straight back and refunded me. These days, I like to see a lot of positive recommendations for any specific RD product, before I trust it.
