I live for the CABE
Picked up a 1965 Colombia Playboy 88 bike, and these wheels were on it
Enamel with green pinstripes, hub says Centric Made in West Germany
Did Colombia put these on some bikes? I don't think they look original to the bike....any info is appreciated
Front hub is not stamped, but has an oil / grease nipple ?

I can't say for sure because I don't know these bikes, but I do know that West German companies started aggressively marketing their hubs in the U.S. around that time and they were undercutting prices of the established manufacturers. Because of this, I wouldn't be surprised if those hubs were original to the bike.
