But no spacers
It's not a pro 2 - photos show the bearings sat in the hub with not much space between the bearing and hub body
I used to have ones like it but don't know if it's a bulb - xc - or big un
Should take a 20mm axle - where do I get the spacers and what do I need to Ask for?
Cheers
Pic?
If it takes a 20mm axle, it's a bulb. The question is, is it a 5 bolt or 6 bolt mount and are you looking for 9mm qr spacers or 20mm thru axle?
Basically, there's no "new" stuff out there for bulb hubs anymore so you're just begging from people's spares bin now.
Yeah - that's what I thought.
It's 6 bolt and 20mm - think he's got spacers now. Failing that he reckons pro 2 spacers fit fine (he's used em before)
could try contacting Hope as well, see if they can help with identity & spares?
Yeah - that's part of the plan 🙂
Cheers
Pro 2 spacers don't fit bulb.
Just save yourself the time and phone Hope; you will find them unbelievably helpful.

Hope don't have bulb spacers anymore. I tried to order some a couple of years ago.
They come up on ebay now and again.
Pro II spacers should fit the hub but the hub wont then fit in your forks.
I think one spacer can be reduced by about 5mm so it then fits the forks.
It is one way that the Bulb can be used with a 15mm axle so should in theory be possible with the 20mm spacers, I think the cir-clip fitment is the same for both.
much thanks for everything posted so far
I'll speak to Hope and see if they can help somehow - and it was only cheap (as are the Pro 2 spacers) so happy to bodge something in the meantime
Ask on retrobike if you have no joy with Hope.
