Do they just drop into whats there, like the front hub end caps?

Yep, two minute job. Just went 135xQR to 12x142.

Remove old caps, replace with above QR adaptors. Very simple.

Austinburner, I'm looking to go the other way, ie converting from QR 135mm to 12mm x 142mm. Do you fancy a straight swap of the end caps? Could either do this by post, or meet up if you're anywhere near Peebles.

Failing that drop me a line.I've got some qr135 end caps that you can have for £5 posted (no longer own the hub)

Slackman99, sent you a mail.
DJC75, think the hub has no end caps so can't swap I'm afraid. Thanks for the offer.
