I used it for the stockpile toilet paper I bought in 2011, that now costs double.
Have you considered using the toilet roll centres as spindles? They're hollow after all...
O K A Y, but I did NOT say:
Some people have 1 Leg.
I DID say:
some people Like Limping on 1 Leg.
I know, it's a veeeeerry subtle difference - it's easy to miss if you look at the world through a hollow shaft.
I Will Be VERY HAPPY to sell you my roll centers!
I'm Fine with a symbolic 1 Euro a piece.
How many do you want?

I would not like to take away the opportunity from you. It would feel wrong.
How many do you have, out of interest?
YOU saw the opportunity, remember?
About your question: none, so far they went the old paper way.
My Octalink 2 set so far didn't go the scrap metal way.
But as reported, I'm Willing to Change if there's a market for it, my offers are still open, for your information.
They likely even beat Shimano's Hollow Technology 2 in making you Limping on 1 Leg.
But we need to give them a good commercial name...
What you think about "Hollow Hardboard Technology 1"?

So, how many have you got?
It's in what you quote:
"About your question: none, so far they went the old paper way."
... and the old paper went last sunday.
So at the moment, they're out of stock.
Please have some Patience!

Lefty tighty. Get it righty.
I had a SRAM GXP bottom bracket in 2014 that seized. Stuck absolutely solid.
Come to think of it, I have a bit of a grudge against SRAM GXP BBs. Lucky for you all I don't have time to turn that grudge into a hobby.

After the clashes with @Nova (alias Silva) on the Dutch forum , I thought he had absolutely no sense of humour, but after reading the last 10 pages about spindles I have to come back on that, he DOES HAVE actually some sense of humour.....

They do that.
I changed to Praxis GXP as the bearings are easier to change. We can all agree that GXP bearings are rubbish, even Silva, but I feel they would need a hammer and chisel for him to remove.

He makes as much sense as those weird "frites and mayo" that the Dutch eat. It's chips and ketchup or daddys sauce. Not mayo.
