If I'm going to go through the trouble of machining a hub for a Colson, it's not a big step for me to just machine a whole custom wheel.

I like wheels that are light, strong, look cool, and most importantly, can be made to have a 7/16" hex bore. Many do not meet my last requirement, and for that reason we're likely to make wheels.

There are absolutely no COTS hubs for Colsons?

What's the reason for 7/16" hex bore? What's wrong with 1/2" ?
