Wanted: Rear Axle Spacers

Hi one and all.

Would anyone happen to know whereabouts I can get hold of some spacers for my 3/8" (just shy of 10mm) width rear axle? The hub was originally spaced for a 110mm track frame and I need it pushed out to 120.

Using a complicated mathematical program this equates to 2 spacers 5mm in length each.

I've got a bunch of galvanised washers in there at present, but they're not very pleasing on the eye :0(

Thanks in advance
Sam

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:

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

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
