Title: Spacer nuts or Jam nuts for wheel axle 3/8ths
Post by: The Burner King on May 21, 2012, 10:51 PM

Can anyone point me in the right direction to buy the thin nuts for 3/8th old school spindles, the ones which go inside the dropouts and forks on the wheel axles. Restoring a couple of sets of zytecs and need some of these.

Any help much appreciated  :daumenhoch:

try some from an infants push bike, as they use a smaller axle. i swapped the axle nuts and the lock nuts of my son's 14" raleigh to spruce my sr/suzue (can't remember which) loose ball hubs up. his are as new plus it's only collecting dust as he doesn't use it. these should be only pennies from a bike shop
