Skyway pegs NITEMARE!

<< < (2/6) > >>

Stella Dave:
hmm, seems to be 24 & 26. I originally had two sets of 24 and realised the front ones wouldnt fit so I eventually found 26tpi for front and now they dont fit and they are ruined!

fouronethreeoh!:
24 tpi is 3/8" unf thread.
26 tpi is 3/8" cycle rate thread.

These are all very similar threads, the only way to tell is with a thread pitch gauge.

How shagged are the threads?
Are they stripped, or just rounded off?

Stella Dave:
The guy is sending me another pair of 26tpi, the threads are pretty messed up, difficult to see them.
Dont wanna make same error again though. Gini is mailing me too with the correct sizes as I bought the wheels from them.

fouronethreeoh!:
With threads if you cant thread things on by hand there is something wrong.

Gently bently, dont force it  ;D

adeshere:
I believe the nuts that were fitted to the axles, have the size (ie 26 ) stamped in to them.

Try threading on a nut first to determine the thread size
