Hi! I'm glad someone here is talking about the pitlock.. I've been searching for something like this forever. It seems I found it exactly ONE day too late.

Yesterday I had my brand new hand built track wheels jacked.

I had 30mm deep campy atlanta rims which I powdercoated frost white, and hand built them myself. Suzue promax hubs.. 18t Surly cog.

Anyway.. moving right along - I was wondering what other details you can tell me about these pitlock locks. From what I gather from the site, they have ones for solid 10mm axels which should fit many track hubs, correct? I'm assuming this doesn't require replacing the whole axle either..

What kind of hubs are you using them with? Where can you get them in the US? Are you using a lock on each side of the hub, or one track bolt and one lock per hub?

Thanks in advance.. hopefully I can build up an equally nice set of wheels again and keep them this time
