Thought I would ask about these here, I was lucky enough to find three sets of five spoke Lester Magz. Only problem is there guts are missing, rear hubs are easy finds (just Bendix 70s) I even have a few. But the front hubs seem beefier then the average where can I find front hub guts.

If you find out LMK also. Kevin

So it seems from what I've learned over at the BMX-museum. You and I are up a crick with out a paddle, you need OG lester parts to make these work. No one makes an axle and bearing assembly that will just pop in.

Major bummer :(
 
Do the races pop out? seems like you could order some sealed bearings the right size and just use spacers.

No I don't think that would work, they use the old school bearing cages and cones like muscle bikes from the 60s. But the guy on the BMX forums says they were
proprietary to Lester, I think these wheels got raced on and the axles got bent up thats why I think the parts are gone.
