As of right now kind of seems like the direction is going to be 450r compatible stuff so the lock nut might be different then the old stuff.

Initial order has been placed for the 450r conversion hub. This will allow you to run the 450r axle on your cannondale/atk quad. Hoping to see them in the next two weeks.

I will be offering them at a discounted price to those that pre-order and pay 50% down
Pre-order sale lasts until July 11th

Pre-order hub price - $105
After July 11th - $145

Pre-order price axle&hub - $440
After July 11th - $480

Axles can be purchases through me, RPM, or any one else that carries them separately. Price on the 450r axle minus the hub should be $389

Ok, I have a little update on the prices. Janssen Motorsports www.janssenmotorsports.com has joined my effort on this. They get an insanely great deal on RPM axles and have agreed to purchase and stock 5 complete axles for me. They list the RPM Dom II for the 450R at $350. Our price will probably be slightly higher as the hubs are still a special order item. A complete axle with hub should be around $375 but will have a solid price a little bit later this week.

Another update for everyone:

We are in the final stages. Sprocket hub has been made. They had to make modifications to the lock-nut as well to make everything work. Raises the price slightly but we are working on that. Pictures below so you can see the set-up. Black pieces are stock cannondale pieces. Everything is basically a go, they just need about a week or two to produce more of the lock-nuts. Top quality job by RPM for sure. Shooting for a price of $450

i just want the lock nut...how close are they to that $90 initial price up above?

The sprocket hub is what was $90 initially which has gone up to about $100 as long as everything works out. The lock nut is another piece they had to develop to make this work. However, I'm working on an even swap of instead of the 450R hub, the lock-nut include for the axle price of $350 plus $100 for the sprocket hub. for a total of $450.

I wonder if axle is still centered with this setup?

I can't see RPM putting something out half-a**ed. They insisted in having a complete stock set-up to ensure everything matched up correctly.

Yes your right.My Lonestar was off center about 1/4in. caught it when aligning front with string to back wheels.Never noticed otherwise but quad must have dogtracked a bit.

Not to hijack this thread, but does anyone know if the stock sprocket hub fits the LSR axles? I have two of them on the shelf used with very loose sprocket hubs.
