Hi All,
As above, can anyone point me in the right direction for adapters specifically for Mavic wheels, to take them from Non Boost to Boost? I am trying to get a model that attaches to the hub/axle and then does not need further messing around with, if I take the wheels off etc (so not just 2 x 5mm spacers).
I know MRP do a kit for DT Swiss/Hope etc that has a disc spacer and then specific end caps for the model of wheel. I am happy to source the disc spacer separately, but just keen to get the right end cap bits.
I just bought the 5mm spacers. Piss easy to put the wheel back on. That's on a DT swiss 240s hub. not going to spend £50 on an adaptor
Thanks Poah; I've got a spacer already, but just looking for the end caps to do the conversion.
I have magic xa wheels non boost. Front wheel been in a qr fork. So running the end caps that push in. The wheel came with some other split external end cap things. These go over the hub whether it’s a bare 100mm wide for 15mm or if the qr adapters are fitted. I don’t recall any other bits coming with the wheel but may have lost some I guess.
Anyhow. To run boost I just bought the cheapest conversion kit off eBay and superglued the red 5mm spacers either side of the hub and spaced out the rotor. The split ring things are in the tool box.
I did google and see that you can by something that mavic call a boost end cap which seems to have grub screws to attach to hub. Read that these are for a boost hub though.
Know idea why that came out in bold after I edited a typo
Thanks Doc. After much Google research, I am inclined to just follow yours and Poah's advice and get the spacers. I'll see if I can dab a bit of glue/something else to hold them in place.
I thought I'd seen a Mavic specific adapter, but can't see anything online now. I have just got the wheels, so will see what is in the box.
