Hi,
think I might have messed up on buying a fork on ebay (paid and dispatched and no returns). I have a hope front hub of 20mm, but the maxle on the new for is 15mm. Arse!
Is there any conversion kit I can use so they will work together or have I messed up big time?
Cheers
Rob
If you have a hope pro 2 or evo then the end caps are easily available in most bike shops.
I do indeed.... could you point me in the right direction on crc or somewhere like that?
Be good to be able to swap it back so I can use my old forks for blasting through the winter mud 🙂
can I buy a 15mm one of these? I gather I just pull out the 20mm end caps in there now?
that right?
The 20mm endcaps have a circlip holding them in .Just use a small screwdriver to lift them out.15mm caps just push in
sweet as... so that makes it easy to put the old pikes back in for winter 🙂
sorry, can i confirm that the 15mm is the one i want on wiggle. Sorry, I know it's obvious, but I got a bit giddy today and bought forks that were not the right size 😉 Though I now gather the hub is the same by hope it's just the various caps you use.
Your link doesn't work for me,but yes 15mm end caps.
