5.5 will go, your news to use shallow head disc bolts so its sits flush against the hub and a conical wheel spacer to suit the wheel. Or just use a a RS250 works axle

they bolt straight in and just need a bush pressed onto the axle to suit the NC hub bearing.

Ah no idea mate, the single sided one
Ive seen a couple on ebay of the years but there of a steel construction and still have the spindle through the middle so i doubt there much lighter. This one is alloy and very light, lasse was selling one a while back very cheap but it got snapped up in no time at all.

DM - Have you fitted your works axle to your bike - If so any pics?
I'm intrigued about these works axles as i cant find any pics with them on a GP bike etc. The single sided swingarms on the race bikes used the standard style fitting from what i have seen. Any info or pics of them in use would be sweet!
