Valid point.  I came up with the 40mm stud after a fair amount of trial and
error.  If anything it will be too long for my app with the SQ rotors by a
couple of mm.  This means it will be 0.5" too long for regular UrQ rotors.
Unfortunately the 40mm is the shortest that H&R makes.  One could obviously
cut them.

The thread portion that screws into the hub is fine and will not foul
anything.
