Some verrrry low quality pics of the mod:

Inside view:



1: dremel (disc or drill) a gap at both sides of hex, in the middle of a straight part.
Wisely choose which sides you will, compared to the spokes.
2: drill little holes at 21mm+1 screwheaddiameter apart
3: screw in the screws , but not all the way down, leave 2 or 3 mm clearance between head and rim
4: fill up with 2 component glue, and lots of it, so the screw stays in place, and fill up all the way to the hex. No glue needed in the hex itself or 5 mm behind the screw.
5: wait 24 hours
6: free up the gap again in the glue using a drill that you use as "machining tool"
7: cut off the screw-part that sticks out at the outisde of the rim using dremel-disc

The 2 component glue you see on the picture survived already several aceton-sessions. It becomes ugly brown, but survives!

Outside view (so you just see the cut off screw ends)



The 20 mm steel pin made from a L-shaped hex driver:
