So i need to replace my rear axle.
9mm x 145mm, hollow, non threaded - for cartridge bearing hub.
From a CODA/Sachs 800 hub.
My thoughts:
Can i use the 145mm threaded axle (C&C hub) from a lower grade hub (CODA 500) that i have?
(Will the cartridge bearings sit in place properly on the threads?).
Can i JB WELD (or similar) the threads (and then sand/machine down to make a 'non threaded' axle)?
Can i buy such a thing and save myself a load of hassle?
Initial enquiries indicate new might be hard to come by.
Alternatively, trawl ebay for a donor hub (or at a push the complete wheel).
Any help greatly appreciated - this is what i am trying to replace.
