Zeus Front Hub

My friend gave me a pair of Zeus Track Hubs. I can't find the nut for the front Hub. A Suntour Superbe front hub nuts will fit. What size would this nut be? I have tried the Campanola's but they wouldn't thread all the way.

Zeus hubs, so far as I know, are Campy compatible. The front axle should be threaded 9x26, as opposed to the 9x1 for Suntour, ShimaNO, and oddly enough, modern Miche hubs. To be completely sure, pull the axle and see whose name is stamped on it.
Give a look over at the Renaissance Cycles site: they sell those Zeus track hubs, and should be able to tell you what the threading is.

Thanks for the reply, the axle is indeed Zeus and the LBS has a Wheelsmith nut and threads gauge and its 9mm x 1mm. Anybody know what DA front and back threads are?

ShimaNO: 9x1 front, 10x1 back. Lotsa folks make track nuts in that threading.
