Red: First Time's a Charm

Whew, luckily...  Tried to make an educated guess as to which version of front axle I needed (went with the one that seemed most like Roxy's, since she has the same style fork mounts).

Got it and... perfect fit!  The thicker section of the axle is 17mm, as is the spacer.

The only odd thing is that the hole in the thick end (which the Yahoo group suggests is used to hold the axle in place when you're trying to turn the nut) disappears into the mount when the nut is tightened.  A bit strange... and not entirely sure it's correct.  Though that's the same setup as what Roxy has now, and it seems fine.  Go figure...
