I had a few hubs kicking about to choose from for a TS1 build, had one each italian, indian and spanish (bought when they were £40!). Set all three up on a lathe at work and measured 'true' with a run out gauge. The indian one was the roundest, within 3 thou of true. The Italian hub 16 thou out, the Spanish hub 33 thou out. Just shows eh?
I used the indian one and still have it. It outlasted the engine by a few years and counting...

spanish ones are rare and tubeless rims dont fit on them
They fit her just fine. She did 6 hours with them mounted on tubeless rims. By the way, should I say... ES PA ÑA! ES PA ÑA! ES PA ÑA! Go spanish rear hubs, they are the best!!!!!!!
P.S: For the price of those tino hubs you can get a whole spanish engine. What a laugh is that!

Interesting, i've got a spanish hub and v3 tubeless and i wouldn't feel happy with the amount of fettle needed to get them to mate.
Are you sure you've got a spanish hub there supereibar?

Sure as my name is Jaime, my dad's name is Jaime and my grandpa's name was Jaime.
I ONLY fit Spanish hubs to my scooters. I have them here easily available, why an INdian or Italian? May the difference lay in that it is a Series II hub?
