just a hint but you can use chainring spacers and then you dont have the annoying flange.

You plainly have no idea. Please go away.

The flange is an important part of the adapter.

The flange sits on the outside of your 14mm dropout or track end. The tube has an outer diameter of ~14mm (just under) and an inside diameter of just over ~10mm. You slide the adapter over your 10mm axle, then into the 14mm dropouts. The flange enables you to tighten the nuts on your axles (rather important, I'm sure you agree) because a nut form a 10mm axle is considerably smaller than a nut from a 14mm axle. Thus, the 10mm nut will not be able to grip a dropout or trackend designed for 14mm nuts/axles.

These are required because many older frames have dropouts and ends for 14mm axles, whereas there is a trend with modern bikes to use 10mm.

i plainly have no idea at all. i have only been bmxing for 4 years and using chainring spacers for the most part to space out 10mm axles to 14mm dropouts in a situation that experiences a lot more force than on a track or road bike. if you have small nuts just put a washer behind the nut, i was trying to save you both time and effort by suggesting something that you most probably already have and you go and be an arse about it.
