    A silly question but after some searching I thought I'd ask everyone.

    I'm trying to find the axle diameters of all the blades from 1996 to today, ideally I'd like to find the sizes of both front and rear, so if anyone can help that would be really handy

    Cheers in advance

    LOL, nope not captive spacers, actually partly as I'm looking a different wheels for 1 of my projects and also I'm looking at the possibility of making some race quick release axles, thread size was easy but axle diameter is harder than I expected, just trying to see what is possible before getting a set made to try (better if they fit more than one model year :) )

    If you are trying to use a specific axle size in a wheel, then why not just change the bearings? Much easier than having to machine imperial axles to metric?

    Actually I was going to look at getting new axles machined up to how I want them rather than mod current ones.
