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 )

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