Normandy Luxe Competition supposedly uses a special thread pitch. If
a cone wears out, you need to replace the axles and the cones as a
set. There are two choices, (A) Campagnolo Nuovo Record, (b) Contact
loose screws for a complete compatible shimano axle set. They did the
experimentation necessary to find a compatible modern shimano axle set
about 2 months ago. In either case if your cones wear out in the
future you'll just need new cones.
