501X/DB01 Split Pins?
 
Does anyone know where to get hold of some split pins (roll pins?) to replace the standard solid bar on the DB01/501X?
After losing a wheel hex last weekend I'd like to fit the other pins instead, unfortunately the losi/AE split pins seem a little too small.
Any ideas?

Get some thread retainer (not thread lock), it cures to a thick, sticky gunk that will hold the pins in place but still allow you to remove them if necessary.

Or.....nail polish ;)

Does the same as above, but adds a touch of colour to your ride lol

Do you have to reapply that every time you remove a pin?

I probably would, but then I have an unhealthy interest in nail polish lol

Shoe goo would work on them pete, or maybe some hot bodies/hpi wheel pins(solid too). Think i ran them in my 501. Also search mx websites as stuff called Grip Glue works well made by Renthal for sticking handlebar grips on.

Thanks guys, I'll use shoe goo for now and keep looking:)
