Can you take a picture of the wheel holding mechanism? I'm interested in how it holds the wheel laterally. -BIG DAN

You want to make sure your tire is going to run exactly in line with the hub and not off to one side. This will cause weird steering and possibly knobbies rubbing on the forks, even though the axle is aligned perfectly. Check.

This wheel was off to one side from the factory...

that shaft there that had the two black sliders

You have to take the bearings out of the hub and the sliders slid into the bearing housing and the sliders have little allen screws in them.. tighten them down and it keeps the wheel solid to the shaft there.. and the shaft rolls on the rollors there
