I have an old set of Millard hubs and need bearings axles and the little metal cover that stoped the loose bearings falling out any idea where to get em???
 
Sounds like you also need cones as they stop the bearings falling out and the metal cover just stopped muck getting in.

Maillard hubs are largely bottom/middle quality and don't fetch a lot of money on eBay so look out for a similar pair and transplant what you need (they did some good hubs - the prices will give you a clue).

From my experience the races in the hubs did not last well - you should start by looking at them for pitting (bad) and brinelling (not too bad) because if the races are gone then it's a waste of time looking for the rest.

You should also check the threading for the rear block - it will probably be French so you will need a French 5/6 etc speed block.
