WTB: Hub Wing nuts
Looking for 2 x 8.0mm x 1.0 and 2 x 9.5mm x 1.0 hub wing nuts. Brand is not all that important.

I have 1 orphan Sugino wingnut that is 9.5 (I think). It is yours for free if you like.

I have a few kicking around, mainly Huret but a few that are "no-names".
Since I don't have axles that are marked with threading it would help me (and others with same 'problem') if you could name some examples of the commonplace brands that have these specs, unless "they ALL do that"!

Thanks for the offer. But finding a match is likely difficult.

I'll have a look at my stash. Lot's of oddballs, they're always been a trial and error exercise for me. I'll try the tap thing.

Here’s what I have in my stash:
Both sets in the 2nd and 3rd rows fit a Normandy solid axle front hub. The top row set is for a rear hub, but didn’t fit the two no-name solid axles I had in my stash. Take whatever you want for the cost of mailing.

I have these:
left column: 2 marked Sugino, one Compe
All are OK for a Rigida 27" rear wheel;
middle: one marked H, one marked Compe.
Both ok on that rear wheel;
Right column: three marked H, two marked Marcel Luxe
Smaller than the other on left, probably for a front wheel, I don't have one, so not checked.

Now I know it is a roll of the dice, but 9 times out of 10, when I buy from ebay.fr, stuff comes with French threads. There is a ton of papillon to choose from on ebay.fr. Odds are pretty good, why not roll for something that fits the right vibe you want?

I got here second, so I'll take what you don't need! I'm really not picky at all - just need something that will work for my "kitchen sink" '50s French cheapo rando build, for which I forgot the wing nuts. I think they are 8mm in front and 9.5 in back, same as yours.
