Post by: griff on February 03, 2014, 08:10 PM: Yes, but I'd rather trust the ones above with all the rad stunts I pull when I'm shutting down the park

Post by: HUTCHMAN on February 03, 2014, 08:12 PM: can't remember where the fook I got them from (probably Alan's, Custom Riders) but I've got some that reduce down to a 10mm axle on my Kappa... they basically look like huge "top hat" Redline flight washers.

What, they turn a 14mm axle into a 10mm?

It'll never be ridden in anger, just for my bro to ponce about on at vw shows.
