Fat bike wheelset

Hi, for sale is my Surly My Other Brother Darryl wheelset c/w Nobby Nic 26 x 4" tyres (currently set up tubed). These were fitted to my Surly Wednesday but have now been replaced and are no longer required. Hub spacing is 150 front and 170 rear.

The wheels are in good condition but do have some marks from use, although the damage is purely cosmetic.

Any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

I'm looking for £250 plus postage.

Hi, which hubs have the wheels got? Can they be converted as I need a 142x15 front.
Cheers
Mark

Hi, I'll need to have a closer look at the hubs tonight. I was pretty sure they were Surly hubs but I've had a look on their site with regards to your question about the front spacing but can't seem to find any hubs wider than 135 spacing.

I could sell you a set of Bluto forks to go with the wheels if not.... :-bd

Hi, thanks for your reply,letme know when you find anything. I’ve got a pair of salsa makwa forks on the bike that I really like, but they are a slightly awkward spacing it seems!
Cheers

Hi, unfortunately I can’t see any markings on the hubs so can’t confirm what they are, or if they can be converted. I’ve added a couple of close up pics to the album in case someone else can identify them.

My Salsa wheelset are made by Formula and as the USA distributor is the same, could be worth a shot?

My current wheels have salsa hubs and they have pull off endcaps, much like hope wheels. If these are the same, I could hopefully switch my endcaps to get a 142x15mm front spacing?
Do the end caps come off the front hub?
Not so bothered about the back as it is the correct spacing already.

Hi, sorry for the slow response, I was away all weekend.

Thanks for the input guys.

I’ve had a look at the front wheel again tonight but unfortunately it doesn’t look like it has changable end caps.

Still have these available for sale. Would sell the tyres and wheels separately if anyone is interested in just one of the wheels & tyres, or in a single wheel / tyre.
