FYI - I picked up a new "Chinese" 27" front wheel with Quando hub that also has an 8mm axle. And it's the rare 1.0 pitch thread, as well, making spare flanged nuts (almost track nuts) hard to find. Plus it takes a 14mm spanner, so another tool to carry in the event of a puncture. I think I'll see if I can swap the axle out for a more standard size. Can't complain - the wheel (with Weinmann rim) was £20 new.
