• 19g!!? That's mad. I guess I could also try and tap the axle for an M6 thread and use titanium button flange machine screws. Is this a thing @mdcc_tester?

  • titanium

    I wouldn't bother with Ti, 7075T6 is strong enough, half the weight and quarter of the price. Neither is easily available in Torx, and both are easy to round out in hex socket form if you're either ham fisted or use poor quality Allen keys. Tapping QR axles for M6 screws is a thing, but it depends on the hub design being suitable.

  • Thanks for the info. Might have a look at the axles, could be an easy way to save gs.
