I'm looking to beef up my axles by switching from 1/2" to 5/8" because they keep bending due to side impacts from larger players and it's starting to get costly and sometimes it pulls me out of games.

Obviously I would need to switch to 5/8" wheel hubs and 5/8" receivers. My question is this; will the 5/8" receivers fit my existing chair thread size (I'm guessing no) and if not can the chair or new receiver be easily re-milled to fit?

Also, is it possible to just buy new Spinergy 5/8" wheel hubs and swap them out or is the spoke length affected in some way?

September 15 is the deadline for notifying your team representative if you are changing teams.

Players who are planning to play for a different team this season other than the team they played for last season must notify their past team representative by September 15. This applies even if the past season's team will not roster a team this season.
