Compbrake alloy cortina hubs

Very poor products, holes for wheel studs are too big ( 7 bad, only 1 correct), and a hole for a outer bearing is too big

No news from them ( I send them a message)

So, don't buy

Nothing else to say

bought a bias valve from them and it was also very poorly made

1. the tapered adapters they provided only engaged the brake pipe fittings by 2 threads .... they said that was normal
2. they were made of soft brass that cracked when tightened
3. the catalouge states the incorrect interface threads for the valve so the new steel fittings I bought did not fit

I ended up using a secondhand willwood valve instead

Do I get a nanopence discount for that recommendation?


Deckman001 - 26/5/06 at 05:06 PM

Recomendation discount only applies when people buy a set
It might be worth mentioning I guess, that if people buy my hubs through Locostbuilders, it works out cheaper than through the allyhubs web site Locostbuilder discount, what ever next
