Wingnuts

Anyone know of anyone supplying wingnuts as we used years ago. Plenty on ebay but they are all old threads rather than a modern version.

You'll be lucky to find wingnuts in a metric thread, but it shouldn't be too hard to swap your axles for imperial.

If the wingnuts on ebay etc are for smaller dia axles than current axles then it might be possible to drill and tap them to suit but not really cost effective.

Huret wingnuts perhaps? Don't know for sure if they'll be metric
