I'm thinking a hard drive magnet epoxied to the hub of a wheel, and one to the moon disc, would be a very good solution.
If I tried that, I'd also have a mechanical interlock so that the disk could not slide off in plane when the wheel hits a pothole.
I don't understand the need for threaded inserts, unless you've stripped out your first set of threads for the traditional installation.
