I just received some track nuts that I bought off eBay a couple of days ago and they don't fit my hubs. I have what I think are Formula track hubs, and I didn't know what size fits them. I bought Imperial size as I was under the impression these were the norm, so I need either metric or another imperial size... I have no idea.

The set I have are:
Front - 5/16"
Rear - 3/8"
I think they may be an old size as they were NOS

Does anyone know what size I should have? And does anyone have any that they want to part with.

I can either buy yours, or swap with mine, or you can buy the set I have for £7 (from Peckham), or £9 posted.

I also need an 18 tooth track sprocket and lockring if anyone has one?

cheers.

Nuts tend to come in all shapes and sizes i thought.

Being a polyorchid is rare and sought after.

I have two nuts off a miche hub they are a bit rusty though.

If the rear nuts are too small then you need 10mm nuts (3/8th is 9.5mm) If the rear is 10mm, then the front is most prob 9mm.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
