Any idea if a p hope pro2 100mm qr be converted to a 135 15mm?
Thanks
135x15 ? You got something a little mixed up here ?
rear wheel steering?
For a fat bike innit. Doubt such an adapter exists.
Hmmm,
Well the 135 bit is definitely correct.

I'll measure the diameter when I can.
It's a Travers prong.
Yep. Definitely 135x15mm.
ah, in that case, i'm right out of ideas, i've never done the fat-bike thing.
Actually, there’s this adaptor on eBay: [url] https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MTB-Tools-Adapter-Set-For-15mm-x-100mm-Front-Hub-To-15mm-x-135mm-Fat-Bike-Fork/252348997344?hash=item3ac12c1ee0:g:b1gAAOSwGYVXCCCI [/url]
You’d also need a Hope QR to 15mm adaptor though.
Not sure I’d want to be using adaptors like that though, I’d rather spend a bit more and get a proper fat bike hub.
Get a 135mm hub. Especially if you're running 'proper' wide rims.
also, make sure you get the right disk spacing hub for the fork.
It can be done but it isn’t pretty. You need to space the disc out 17.5mm and then run adaptors either side of the hub. I had a set on my Jones for a dynamo and it didn’t work as a dynamo. The tolerances need to be exact.
However, this was a temporary solution for a race. My regular 135mm wheels are much stiffer as they’re wider at the hub, and this means they’re dishless.
thx all.
There was a bargain on offer so thought I'd check but agree with the above & I declined the 'bargain'.
