New mod (to me anyhow)

[Professor]

I'm not sure if anyone has posted pictures of one of these yet. While looking at rearsets and chain adjusters, I came across this axle nut from Gilles. Now it would look much better with the chain adjusters, but here is a link and a few pictures. Pricey, but very nice quality. Got to love titanium.

Looks good, I am not sure about the locking mechanism. There are some things that a real cotter pin can do that this plastic interloc may not be able to.

Gilles makes some real nice stuff. I am saving now for the chain adjuster and now this, plus possibly the lift brackets to boot.

It is using friction against the threads. I played with it a bit it it does work.

They are on my short list as well. I almost ordered a set. How about a group buy?

You can see the allen set screw in my picture. The link shows a better one.

How do you tighten it or does it use the stock axle wrench?
