That first one looks very A series BSA but I wouldn't swear to it. The second one I have no idea except to say didn't Royal Enfield use cush drives from early on?

Both look like MZ 125/150.
The rear definitely is !

Cheers guys, theyre pretty knackered but thought could be worth to someone out there.

Im really tempted to keep the front but i cant get the brake cover off, it seems to of had a ding and dented it, jamming it to the hub.

Ill have a look into mz hubs and brakes to try and clarify.

My MZ front wheel has got 36 spokes not 40 as in ebay description, miscount maybe?
