Besides driving all of us Campy heads nuts, it may work. Just make sure that the bearings are running in the middle of the cone race and not up on the edge. Steven

I have an old Atom hub with a solid axle and decent locknuts. I want to use my Record hub in a track bike. Last night I put the Atom axle and cone nuts into the Record hub and it seemed to fit in there with no excess play. Is this dillusional or can I go with this setup? Or should I just "splurge" for a real solid axle with real Campy-compatible cone nuts, etc? I'd like to save the money if possible. A related question that I'm afraid to ask is, will my high-flange Record hub fit into the track bike that is on it's way to me. --Keven Ruf Seattle, WA Land of eternal sunshine.
