There were two different types of wheels used, but I can't imagine they'd have changed the locating hub?

Are you sure you didn't end up with a Revere wheel or something off one of the other similar shaft drive bikes?

The Bros also came in 400 and 650, not sure if there was a difference between them in wheels or igt was just a later model that had different wheels on it..

The alignment/drive pins have different spacing is all. One is 85 pcd, the other 100. Just have the wheel drive pin holes drilled ($), or the hub modified ($$$$). Since the nc pins are closer to the middle of the wheel it will be fine structurally. I know of guys with Bros who go the other way with nc wheels and the pins end up out on the edge of the wheel.
