So I saw this Aerospoke and it looks like something is missig, It doesn't appear that any part of the hub is threaded.

It looks like it's threaded for a freewheel on the other side.

Those look like their older hubs. I dont know how old, definitely pre '02. All of the new hubs and wheels (after '02) are the ones where you can easily switch out hubs turning a front into a track rear and such. I am guessing you can still pop that hub out and get a new one, but its questionable whether they would still have replacements for one that old.
