Absolute steal.
You can bodge the axle using the cones from a cup & cone front axle. Think there's a particular Shimano one that's @mdcc_tester approved and @umop3pisdn tested, which will sit snugly inside a 6001 bearing (12mm ID), and is much cheaper than buying the kit.
I bought the kit because I wanted those machined alu bearing seats, but didn't use anything else, so looking back, it was a bit of a waste of money.

I think that was @Scilly.Suffolk rather than me.

Jumped on these for £45 yesterday. The trispoke turned out also to be a rear, but after some quick googling it seems like I might be able to convert it to a front with this: http://www.hedwheels.com/proddetail.asp?prod=H3FrontTrackAxle
Anyone have experience with doing that? It's now 120mm threaded for freewheel.
