    Pretty sure they are Formula hubs.

    They are indeed Formula.

    The standard qr axels are £11 instore so either

    a) they included fitting
    b) they aren't cup and cone axels and have cartridge bearings

    Or c) it was for the cones like he said he wanted? Not all canes are the same, you can't always fit any old cone into a different hub.

    P.s. It's axle unless your a merkin.
