Review of DCMoney Wheel Spacers
If this is the wrong location please move it, but I feel like this is a useful post.
A fellow member @DCMoney makes wheel spacers, they are if excellent quality, they arrive quick, and he is great to work with. If you order a regular one it comes with a 16.30mm ID to fit loosely on your 15mm axel. You can also order then with tighter tolerances, I ordered one with 15.1mm ID and it fits great. DCMoney figured out the length for the newgen spacer and I'm sure it works great if you have a newgen. (I was the first to order one for both the newgen, and the pregen, however I don't have a newgen). I measured a appropriate length of 41.5mm for the pregen and I got pricesly what I ordered. The measurement I provided was a hair on the long side, but it fits nicely. If I were to do it over again, I would order it in the length of 41mm, with an ID of 15.1mm. If you have a trailtech vapor, I highly suggest you contact him and buy your own spacer.

I've seen these referenced a couple times. What's the purpose? Captured so they don't come out when the wheel is removed? orrrr...?

To clarify the IDs, to keep cost low I use a 5/8" drill bit 15.88mm. The spacers I have sitting around measure out to 16mm. If I have to use a boring bar prices go up. Having a tight ID on a spacer doesn't do anything for you.

The spacer here seems to have a seal around it - I am wondering what he used. Do you also remove the speedo drive coupler that is held in the wheel hub with a circlip? Then instal the spacer?

No seal. The drive for the speedo is still there on the wheel. This is a race only bike and after talking with other racers decided to not run a seal.
