Hi
got a rocky mountain alitiude 50 was thinking of swapping the 32mm front forks for something alittle stiffer and beefier.... so fox 36's seem to fit the job.
anyway from what i can see all the forks (2nd hand ones that i have looked at) are 20mm axle..... my current wheels and forks are 15mm.... is there a way to use my current wheel with a 2nd hand fork either converting the fork to accept 15mm or converting my wheel to accept 20mm? reading on some posts that 20mm hubs are wider.... if thats true i take it its new front wheel new front forks..... or new forks and somesort of conversion?
any help would be great
Some hubs such as the pro2 can be converted to accept 20mm check your hubs and post back.
Wheeltech XC Cartridge Bearing 15mm Axle thats my hub on the front...... can't seem to find any information on them... or am looking in the wrong place
Doesn't the fox 34 come with a 15mm axle?
possibly... i will look into it just thought that if i was jumping up that 32 to 36 made more sense than just to the 34
True. Might be easier to rebuild the wheel with a 20mm hub.
