    Hi all,

    I have some R&G fork spindle sliders from an old bike that I want to put on the Blade but I have a problem in that the front axle nut is sealed (unlike many bikes that have a hollow nut).

    Does anyone know of a decent replacement? Is it simply a case of replacing it with a standard open nut so I can put the spindle sliders through the front axle?

    Cheers

    And enjoy the weather! Looks amazing today!

    With the evotech sliders you get a replacement hollow nut so i think it would be ok to drill it.
