Spinergy Rebuild - Rear hub Rebuild

Retro Guru
I know i should just put up a wanted thread but, I am in the middle of rebuilding some Spinergy's which will go on an early 90's era build.

What QR Skewers should i go for ? , i realise personal taste but these beauties' are a bit special so need some thing more them an unbranded anodised blue or red set. Inversely i don't want to get a set which have obviously been robbed from another wheelset. I do have a pair of anti theft cap headed type but this is for show not practicality.

And the suggestions need to be in the realms of availability

So I have managed to get some time to play on these.

When I got these ( at a very good price, Thanks @Magpiegifts ), I was fully aware of the issue's on the rear so this is what i have focused on.

The freehub locking thread was gone and trying to Helicoil an M14 fine in alloy wasn't going to work to my mind so i made the following top hat with a nut for locking it up. I know the welds aren't the prettiest but they have good penetration
I also now have a axle even if it was a bit more than expected. So no assembled pictures but the ones below hopefully show where I'm at and may be usefully if some one wants inspiration to fix a stripped rear hub.

Yes it weighs , but it works. Freehub insert.jpg Lock nut 1.jpg Lock nut 3.jpg Lock nut 4.jpg Lock nut 5.jpg Lock nut 6.jpg
