WTD Hope XC front hub 15mm adapters

Post by thenorthwind »

Hoping (no pun intended) this enforced home time will give me a chance to finally build some new rims onto my old Hope XC hubs. They're currently qr - anyone got any spare bits to make 'em 15mm?
Cheers

Is it possible? I inherited a pair of wheels with an old Hope XC and thought they were qr only - I would be very happy to be wrong (and even more so if you find a source of 15mm end caps :lol: )

Hope XC hubs cannot be converted to 15mm. Bearings too small.

Ah bummer, on closer inspection, you're right, the bearing ID is 12mm so that's not gonna work :oops:

Might just have to build another set for my (QR) Longitude. But 29er or another 650B+ set...

I think I have a BNIB Hope hub if that might be of interest?2

Edit - looking through ancient posts the details are - Red Hope Pro2 front hub, standard QR caps / spacing. Brand new and boxed. £40 posted.

Happy to discuss price and fitting to meet your needs.
