No stampings on hubs, perfectly smooth. Identification is circular, black, paper sticker "GALLI / maillard". Hubs, dust caps, lock nuts look like Maillard 700 Professional Team Issue hubs. No skewers. (What skewers are appropriate for the Galli / Maillard?). Can't even remember from where or whom they came. Regards, Richard Cielec ---------------------------------------------------------- Sounds like you have aset of Galli hubs that were made by Maillard. Galli had a great deal of their products contract manufactured by other makers. This being a case in point. I have seen these hubs you speak of. They originally came with skewers that said both Galli/maillar like the black stick you mention. They are reasonably good hubs and should last as long as any other high-end hubs that you may have used in the past.
