• Dura Ace front hubs made in the last ten years (7700 and 7800 series) use an oversized aluminium axle. Nothing else will fit the hub, so your options are limited to using a security skewer. If the hub's older than that (7400 series) you can fit a normal 9mm x 1mm solid axle. The only tools needed are cone spanners, and it's a 15 minute job.

    Sorry to bring this up again,
    Got a 7700 road hub and been looking around after reading this trying to find a solid axle for it.

    Found this: http://www.benscycle.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=188_431&products_id=4895

    But still not sure about sizing since the 7700 uses an oversized axle
