Help Identifying this Real hub

[saddlesore1]

I am trying to find out the model name or number for this hub. I have contacted Read Design and the new owner says it predates him. Any hlep would be greatly appriciated. It is extremely lite and rolls forever. I have never had an issue with it in over 10 years.

Pretty cool, looks very much like a Hershey Naked hub (see here: http://www.bikepro.com/products/hubs/hubs_hershey.html) but obviously with 'Real' branding.

I have one of those. And yes, as far as I can tell it's the exact same hub as the Hershey naked hubs.

Mine is still really smooth as well. If you need to replace the cartridge bearings it take an odd size (R6).

Thanks steeler fan. BTW hope they win today. Mine came on a K2 either the 3000 or 5000. I am not sure. I had the 3000 frame replace by K2 when the front shock broke and smashed through the head tube. Went over the bars pretty hard from that brake. K2 was great and sent me a new 5000 frame fork and swingarm. Anyway. I still cant remember were I got this hub.
