Hi,
As I upgraded my not-so-fat Ti to new rear wheel I have spare 177x12 Hope Fatsno rear hub to play with. Would love to stick it on my Puffin with 29 rim for fairer weather duties and general trail mucking.
Is it possible to downgrade 177x12 rear hub to QR with end caps only? Can't check it now as my QR fat wheels are about 1100 miles from here. So not ideal for actual live trialing.
So in essence, do I need new QR hub or can convert TA one?
Cheers!

Looks like the 170/177mm rear hub use either 12mm or QR end caps so I reckon you just need parts:
HUB470 and HUB461N
which also appear to be the standard Pro 4 QR end caps
Cheers!
Very useful link. Forgot to add that my hub is Pro2 Evo.
So actually looks like that's one for me ---> Pro 2 Evo Fatsno 170
And I need HUB238 part.
Case, probably solved 😀
Thanks!

Sorted, and yes it looks like you can convert that hub also. Happy days.
That might actually get even cheaper than I though, as I think, I have QR Hope end caps somewhere in spare parts bin xD
Cheers!
