Item spoke for - going to Dom then!

DomP:
I want to replace my rear axle nut with a stainless one, does anyone know where I can get an m18 x 1.5 stainless castle nut?  Middleton only go up to m16 and ebay items all seem to be 1.75mm thread pitch

I suspect you need the right high tensile grade of SS.

DomP:
Yes I'd not considered that Ted, I kind of assumed they'd be suitable

DomP:
I picked up my rebored barrels from Bryan on Friday and dropped them off for a skim at a small engineering place in Hereford on my way home, with any luck I'll have the enginecall back together in a few weeks.  In the meantime I need to rebuild the front wheel once the rim has been powder coated, I'm thinking of economising with DS spokes rather than stainless, how resilient to rusting are they?
