CR List --- Axle and Spindle are synonyms in English. While in some localities or in some areas of endeavor folks may think there's a difference and use one or the other for specific non-identical applications, they're synonyms. English is like that. Two different words from different linguistic origins, same meaning. Happens all the time. To the best of us. Keep the cranks spinnin' around their (spindle axle), with the pedals maintaining their orientation while their (axles spindles) turn inside them, so that the wheels spin around their (axles spindles) and the bike goes down the road . . . Git on yer bike and ride. Enjoy it. --- David Faulkner in Sacramento
