All this talk about Phil Wood Hubs got me thinking about Pelissier 2000's.

I have a set on a hook for use with a Bertin.

It spins smoother than any hub I've ever held in my hands ... but don't know how they perform on the road.

They have angular contact cartridge bearings that slip in and out for easy maintenance. I've done this ... bearings are readily available at any good bearing shop.

Don't know the timeline, but they look and sound very French.

Anybody have more information about these hubs?
