brake hubs

[honcr249]

did different years have different brake hubs? i have two wheels that were given to me but i have no idea what year they are but they're definitely different and i need spokes for it

There were only drum brakes for wire wheels. The hub/drum of the wheel is the same 18" or 16".
If you have an 18" with a bigger hub/drum yet all the spacers and axle are the same. It may be from a 750. If it is a 750 wheel good luck on finding spokes on the shelf.
If your heart is set on it custom spoke builders can fix you up.

You don't understand what he's telling you. If it's a rear hub for a spoked wheel... Then it's the same exact hub for all of the xs650's. Pull out a measuring tape and figure out what size of wheel you have then just go to Mikesxs.net and order a set.
