i think these are things you want
not exactly clear description though

so long as the khe hubs have the same thread as regular 10mm axles
i am pretty sure mine do

the khe ones aren't compatible guys. They have an additional threaded stud on the back, not shown on alans pic. this threads into the hollow axle on the geisha and hure hubs. you can see it better on the www.khebikes.com website. go into the parts section and down to hubs and they show you a better pic of the assembly in a slideshow type thing.

these are the ones you need, i reckon:

i had the same problems mate!  i managed to get a couple of top hat washers off here for a £5 posted  :daumenhoch:

those screw on ones are good but you need to take off the cone nuts and use them as replacements (well you did on the axel i used them on) so i prefer the top hat ones that Alans used to sell.
