14mm hollow axles are actually stronger than solid axles, the reason being that it's harder to be a tube than a rod.

When we were in the city, I teased my wife so badly. I yelled out "Honey, look! It's Samuel L. Jackson!" She got so excited, she was fumbling with her camera, didn't even notice it was the wax museum.

You might as well look at a complete. Are you planning on putting old parts on a new frame?
