I'm having a bit of a hard time tracking down a pair of cones (for want of a better word), for a cartridge bearing front hub I'm trying to rebuild. I can't seem to find spares anywhere, anyone know where I could find a some? I know most cartridge bearing hubs use a machined axle...but is this alternative method with cones really so uncommon that spares are hard to come by?

This is the rear axle, I'm looking for the same type of thing but for a 9mm front axle.

  • What's wrong with the originals?
    It's not like they are a wear part.

    Ahh yeah, I should have explained that, I'm trying to rebuild a rear wheel into a front, so I don't have the front axle assembly. Assumed (possibly incorrectly) that I'd be able to find one fairly easily.

    Is that a Miche track hub? I stock axle and cone kits like this for those hubs. Maybe Miche make them for others as well.

    Sounds promising, is that for the Primato? Might work if the inner race is 12mm diameter. It's for a HED 3 - I think I might be able to get a spare directly from HED actually, I was just a little surprised that it's not a more standard way of assembling a hub.

    just checked looks like the primato axle front hub kit will fit.
