Subject: [CR]F.B. hubs - French Thread

A 50's French bike of mine came with all-French parts except for F.B. hubs.

As the chrome had peeled off, and the barrel rusted, I got a replacement hub.

The rear-hub is french threaded.

How common was that? F.B. hubs on French bikes? French threads on F.B. hubs?
