So the Colours brand axles that came with my X-Core wheels are too long for a set of Glance wheels that I have. I tried getting a good measurement, but not sure about it. Anybody know what size axles fit the Glance wheels? thx

Hi Colin,
Not sure which axles will fit but you can get spacers for the ones you have, if they are way to long you will need to shop around for some shorter ones.
The diagram below shows how to measure the axle pins, measure the free play in your pins then you will know how much shorter pins you need.
You may not get a perfect fitting pin you may still need to use spacers.
Perhaps someone will have a better idea where you can order some from, here in UK axle pins of different sizes are readily available.
