Hi all,

Currently have a wheel for 142x12 rear end on my stumpy EVO - potentially buying a frame with Syntace X12 rear end - Is it the same? Will the wheel fit ok?

Thanks!

Should be fine,seems X12 is now the accepted name for 142x12.

Don't Spesh use another standard they call 142 + which differs slightly. They used to certainly as I used to work at a Spesh dealer just as bolt thru back ends were starting to emerge.

Sorry if that pisses on your chips

I think the differences are in the way the axle fits into the frame, the hub should be fine for all different 142x12 standards.

Just when you thought they'd all got their acts together, and come up with a useful common standard.....
Edit- apart from the bunch of different threads used 🙄

Edit to my post: if its a Pro2 hub you're using then the 142+ issue doesn't apply despite it being on a Spesh. It should fit a Syntace x12 frame without issues 😀
