Petri 38cm SOLD

[HB Chris]

Bare wheel with no hub, hub cover, trim ring or button. Foam is firm with no loose areas. Back has porosity holes like most and are between 9 and 3. Front has four small scrapes or nicks between 9 and 3 as well. I rate this an 8 out 10 and is in nice condition. I found the 40 I was looking for and this is now no longer needed. Asking $400 plus shipping. Thank you.

Cool wheel. Chris, what's that thing that it's laying on? Not the table mat but the thing with the words on it?

It’s called a periodical. No one knows what it is but at least now you can google it.

Some even had two issues per day. I delivered (briefly) the evening edition of my hometown journal.

Nice wheel Chris. Great price. How Hard is it to find a proper hub?

I am not sure with hubs and other pieces but @Markos can chime in. I will have a Momo hub that will fit but doesn’t have the correct cover of course.

It’s difficult to find a loose Petri hub. Repro covers are made by Wolfe on 2002FAQ. He makes all three lengths (2002, CS, CSL).

@Keshav makes CSL hubs and can offer the whole package with cover (assuming he has any left). Also @patipatina makes an adapter ring to mount a Petri in a momo hub.

I will say that a standard momo C153 is a good substitute length and width wise. A Petri cover will fit over it. If you don’t use an adapter then you would need to drill and tap the steel face. One downside is that the new momo hubs are bolt centric and not hub centric. So you need to be quite careful drilling. Good reason to go with a premade hub or adapter.

I will have a Momo 157 that has been redrilled to fit.
