Hello!

First time poster! total noob here! please be gentle

wrecked my rear wheel a couple of days ago so i thought about getting a new wheelset and now i have run into an issue!

So i currently have a Saracen Mantra Trial 2020 with a SHIMANO ALIVIO - Rear FREEHUB - Its sitting at 10-135 QR and the new wheels im looking at are hunt trail wide mtb 12-142

https://www.huntbikewheels.com/collections/mtb-wheels/products/hunt-trailwide-mtb-wheelset?variant=12211059687501

Any thoughts on being able to get this to work? Should i just give up and look at something else?

All advice and help is greatly appreciate

Thanks in advance.

Under more tech- axle size- it states qr adapters available. “Fill in simple form at checkout “. It will be a case of swapping end caps

Thanks for the reply Docrobster!

Any idea what end caps i would require to sort this?

Will i need to look at purchasing another detrailer hanger due to the extra lengh?

Thanks again for the help and support

You just need the qr end caps for the 142x12 hub. No need to change anything else.

You can get alternate 142x12 dropouts for your Mantra, though you’d need an axle too.
