Thanks, everyone. A quick comparison of the threads on the end of a Suntour axle and a Cyclone hanger bolt shows them the same, but of course that's an imprecise comparison. I'm familiar enough with 26tpi vs.1mm to know that a Campy bearing cone will not even come close to fitting on a Suntour axle, nor the other way around. But then, cones and axles are made to pretty tight tolerances.
So it raises the possibility of using a nice Suntour on a Campy DO, which I think I suspect I'm sure, or at least pretty sure, people do all the time. Options are always good.
