Is the ti axle upgrade kit available? I've heard of prototypes floating around, and I believe Udi has some. How can I be one of the cool kids?

You just have to attain internet super-stardom and they show up in the mail.

I've smashed them into things quite hard and am surprised to say the axles are still straight, and no play or missing pins. Pretty impressed. Maybe contact Mike at Spike directly to see if they're available yet or if they'll sell you some: mike at spank-ind dot com.

Very flattered to hear from the man himself. Refreshing to see that internet fame hasn't douchified you.

Cool, thanks for the info. I'll see what I can unearth.

They are available. They are in the states. I have a set sitting on my workbench now. We have a pretty awesome relationship with our Spank supplier who has helped us in getting some, however... When they were brought out, it was said that they would likely be a consumer direct option.

Thanks for the info. Mike Dutton from Spank, the guy Udi referred me to, has been a very cool dude to work with. Big thanks to him! He hooked me up with a ti axle kit along with a set of the new Oozy pedals. Don't have them in hand yet, but I believe they are on their way.
