phil wood's axles are hollow, as are dura ace axles. although, phil's axles are gigantic and the hole in the D/A hubs aren't large enough to put a QR through...

the problem with BMX axles is that it's getting harder and harder to find 3/8" BMX axles nowadays. most companies have switched over to larger, heavier, stronger 14mm axles...i'm not sure if standard or kink still make 3/8" axles...

i know dans competition had some really nice heat treated 3/8" axles back in the day, but the middles of them were oversized (the front was almost twice as big in the center as the ends were).

how, praytell, did you manage to bend an axle on your track bike?
