Re: Threaded rod through ball bearings
Can you use 10 mm threaded rod and turn/file it down to 3/8" so that it's a tight fit in the bearings? That would give you a larger minor diameter and more strength, as long as there is sufficient thread depth left to snug things up. Any possibility that you could use a socket shoulder bolt (stripper bolt) as an axle?
At any rate, I would be concerned about using such a small axle for a wheel that is cantilevered out.
