Dale,

You now have me totally confused. When I bought my Hi-Lo front hubs, while on a visit to Campagnolo, I was led to believe that I had bought the full lot of 87 hubs ever produced. This made me wonder where you had dug up the picture, as I still have all hubs in my personal stash. I also noticed that the Q/R lever is reversed in clear contradiction to the proper technical instructions imparted to me. Coud this therefore be a counterfeit hub? perhaps a replica hub? a second generation? or a lot-to-lot variation of standard record?

Now you say that fron HI-Lo hubs are all a hoax and that photos lie, or are these line drawings? What do I now do with my hubs?
