Hi All.
I have re-drilled and re-threaded many NSR hubs, for myself and others, and I always go for the smaller Slotit size rather than the NSR size, cos it gives greater screw/hub contact and is less likely to strip. (you can also get away with a smaller boss in those difficult sidewinder situations).
There is absolutely no problem with the Slotit screw size, I would respectfully suggest that those who claim so are wind-up merchants, either having very limited experience or just "having a larf" !.
The OP appears to have a genuine problem, but this can be resolved by cutting a slot across the screw and hub with a fine Dremel disc, and using a small screwdriver to extract the grub-screw.
