Can anyone help identify a wheel I have recently acquired. I was told it is AMC, but it does not match any photos drawings I can find.

It has a 7 x 1 1/8 inch brakes
and has NW241 stamped on a brake shoe.
More photos in next post.

I had some hubs like that and i thought they were triumph. try looking at BSA c15 hubs. Nobody brought mine and i even tried giving them away. They made the dustbin heavy

Triumph 3TA, 5TA Speedtwin etc. The spindle has been threaded to fit something else and that stud shouldn't stick out, obviously for a torque arm like on AMC.

Thanks for your replies.
My own research was pointing to a pre unit Triumph.

Definitely looks like my 3TA front hub. I think there should be a nut on the shoe pivot and I think the brake lever is reversed.

Triumph 350/500, the stud sticking out holds the brake cable outer and as said before the brake lever is wrong way around.
