It is also possible that Lynskey is providing nuts with different thread pitches, so the buyer can choose which style axle to use. However, there are only 3 commonly used 12mm thread pitches and the picture on the Lynskey website clearly shows an insert with an off-center nut installed.
You are right. When I bought my frame it came from Lynskey with the TA dropouts installed. Only one nut. That's why when I went to their website to look at the dropout, I was surprised to see all the different nuts. I only went to the website to better understand dropouts when the bolts holding them came loose.
Very interesting. I totally missed the off-center nature of the nuts. The eye doesn't perceive what the mind does conceive !!!
Thank you !
