Bantam hub in C15 forks

Hi all,

Wasn't sure if this was a singles or a Bantam question so here it kids!

I've mounted a Bantam (D7) hub in a set of C15 forks using (I think) a combination of C15 & B25(?) yokes with suitable shimming. I've made up a torque arm to fit. At the moment I'm using a late Bantam spindle which works but it is a bit short.

Can anyone tell me what, if any, work is involved in fitting a C15 spindle to the Bantam hub?

Thanks

I seem to remember someone fitting a C15 wheel (rebuilt with 18" rim) to a standard B175 suggesting a B175 spindle is the same length as a C15.
D7/D10/D14 and B175 standard wheels are the same apart from the brake plate and spindle, not sure if it would need bolt clearance grooves fettling.
