I have a DT Swiss 350 front hub. It is currently 20mm, can it be converted to 15mm? DT Swiss website would suggest otherwise, but I don't believe it!

Anyone have any experience?

DT Swiss site says"The 350 IS disc hubs are available in dedicated QR, 15 mm or 20 mm fronts" hmm had originally read this as being convertible between the std, now I'm not so sure

I managed to turn something out of black nylon on my lathe. Looks good, works good. All sorted!

Yeah, if you've got a lathe all 20mm hubs can be converted to 15. Not always so simple otherwise, for reasons of objectionable bullshit. Like in this case it seems to be DT making the 350 less good than it could be, to try and get people to buy their more expensive stuff.
