  I don’t think I’ve ever had that impression more strongly yeah. I’ll report back if I find something!

    This may be a dumb question but are these wheel hubs like car hubs where you can open them up to get at the brakes? If the hubs themselves are hard to replace maybe the brake pads themselves would be easier? Something you could replace with a generic pad cut to size or something?

      Not a dumb question at all! Drum brakes on bikes seem to be almost universally single use, and I assume getting the spare parts for these would be even more difficult than getting new hubs if they existed.
