Update from SPNK:
"We have recently altered the design of the bearing nuts slightly: they are now made from stainless steel (to increase strength) and the diameter of the flange is approximately 2mm narrower. If you see the attached photos, the new one is on the right.
Hard to tell from your photo whether it will still suit your purposes, but to give you an idea of size, the flange of the bearing nut is now flush with the edge of the sealed bearing which came with the Fixxer."
So they'll do the job, but not as neatly as the old ones; however, it's still a neater solution than traditional locknuts, so I'm not that fussed.
