craigjames Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 I would imagine they do work, its the bit you screw the bolts into you've threaded? If so they're the replacement inserts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Dark Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 If it's threaded then surely the axles buggered? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) Mr CK says: The BMX driveshell rides on a premium quality needle bearing which turns directly on our super-heavy duty steel rear axle. The rear axle has threaded aluminum inserts that are easy to replace in case your threads get messed up, WITHOUT throwing away the axle. This hub is built to last a lifetime. Consider it an investment in your lifelong passion for BMX. So in answer to your question, yes (Not Alex's question mind!)

Brisa Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 fair enough, I thought they were tapped directly into it The standard HD axle does but the BMX axle is different with alloy inserts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max-t Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) oww cool, cheers man so are the inserts easy to fix then? just like helicoiling? Send it to King. It might be worth buying some profile bolts too. The ones in the King hub are far too short. Edited February 3, 2010 by max-t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
