Sorry, no pics... I changed over to the CNR hexes as soon as I saw they were available. 2D must have some in a long forgotton about folder! Where would they be too small? Don't yours fit over the axle?

Nope![:@] about these CNR ones... can i use PL 23mm wheels still? Oh and I dont need to use shimms with these CNR ones do i? And do they come lose as easily as the PL ones do? Will i have to use locktite?

No Ham, lucky for us that you can poke fun at yourself when you think you have messed up. Now if a few more on this site could just change to be more like that, it would be a lot more fun.

The CNR hexes do not come with, or need shims, that is correct. And yes, they are 23 mm so fit any 23mm wheel. They also use the standard wheel nut, so no loctite unless you used it to begin with (I dont, but the plastic on the lock nuts wears out after a while).
