they don't have a web site. i believe their number is 909-946-6780.
any shop that buys out of QBP can get you their hubs.

Hadley Racing Products is located in Upland, California. The hubs are designed and manufactured in the USA by Michael Hadley, my father. I actually worked for my dad this past summer on a website, which should be up-and-running in the near future. Look for us at www.hadleyracing.com. To contact Hadley Racing, please call 909-946-6780. As an end user, you can purchase the hubs through your local dealer. Call us to find the dealer nearest you.

at first i thought this was a joke thread, but the OP is posting from peru so it's probably for reals.

the hadley site has been in the works for just under a decade. i figure the hadley site will go live right about the time that all our wheels will be mag lev technology, and the hadleys will be obsolete.

still my favorite hubs.

just out of curiosity... i'd heard a rumor a number of years back (from someone who was generally reliable with industry information) that hubs were just a side business. anyone ever find out if there was any truth to this?

it makes a certain amount of sense, given the fact that high end hubs don't have huge sales volumes, especially for just mountain bike hubs.

i've always heard the same thing but every time i've called them for anything i never thought to ask. i think someone on mtbr took a tour of their factory/business a few years back and may have mentioned something about it.

given the area they are located my guess would be a machine shop that supports aerospace companies. total guess though.

Your face.
Any changes that ARE coming and damn good ones, trust me.

Its rare that I can look at a company and NOT bitch about something, but goddamed if Hadley doesn't just kick ass in every direction.

Bump. Just got a 15mm front axle conversion kit for a 20mm Hadley dh hub from 2002. Awesome to be able to convert an old hub to a standard that didn't exist until a decade after the hub was made.

one of my rears is from around that time and they sent me an updated axle gettup for free with free tools with my rebuild kit since they no longer make the version i had. thats how CS is done
