Cheap like how much?

I guess they go on the front axle bolt to resemble something similar to what the endurance bike use

£3.20 each, race fit charge about £70 a set

There too small for the rear and im not sure how you would get them to fit the left side of the front axle, they should fit the the right side tho

you wouldn't want to fit them on the left side, endurance bikes use them on the hex-side only and is on axles where the hex is machined to the axle itself, not the axle and bolt setup on our NC's.

But for looks (and added unsprung weight) fit it to the right hand side of the forks to enable slower wheel changes due to one more glorified spacer to keep hold of

If real QD axle is wanted, a treaded insert held in place (by the pinch bolts) in the lefthand side and a custom made externally treaded axle in the lefthand end and a hex and circlip groove in the righthand side, is needed.
Both can by made quite easily by a competent machinist.

Mate if you want some I'll get some too. Now if ronni can explain that front axle idea in plain english for us dim wits I'll look at getting some made :)

I think on one side the fork lower is internally threaded ( or rather something is made to sit in the stock hole and the fork pinch bolts clamp it ) and a custom axle is made with threads on the outside ( not like the stock item where a bolts screws into it) so when it passes through the wheel it screws into the front lower. So the axle turns into a very big bolt and the fork lower the bolt. The axle would need to have a hex head to enable it to be screwed( by a battery gun) and something to put it, like a D ring

Unless the price turns stupid ,ie £30 each to be delivered, I'd like 2. Black. Or gold. Mmmmmm?
