I have some Hunt four seasons gravel disc wheels. I use shimano centre lock brake rotors. The wheels came as qr at the front and rear.
My Datum frame is 15mm bolt through front axle, so i bought the Hunt adapters and the disc brake lockring to suit.
Having fitted the adapters, and offered the wheel up into forks, the disc rotor lock ring is touching the inside of the fork leg.
Is this a complete incompatability issue or have i done something wrong?
Check their (Hunt) website but you might need another adaptor
possibly this
That is the item i ordered, but the item i recieved looks identical to the one i have when i ordered my wheels. So its possible they have sent me the wrong part? Mine isnt branded shimano like that in the picture
Had this problem, there is a slim lock ring ( the bb type) that does work. Mine wasn't supplied with tha brakes and Mason ended up sending me one
Not Hunt wheels, but I used a lock ring like that shown in peteimpreza 's link-

Ok. It appears ive been sent the non slim lock ring
The linked to items in all of the above posts may still be too thick.
I had the same problem with Bontrager Affinity wheels, on my Kinesis Racelight 4S disc build.
The real answer, is to use the lock ring from [url= https://www.merlincycles.com/shimano-disc-sm-rtad05-rotor-centre-lock-hub-to-6-bolt-adaptor-94077.html?utm_campaign=googlebase-GB&utm_source=googlebase&utm_medium=shopping&utm_term=MTB+Disc+Brake+Rotors+%26+Spares&ucpo=34497&gclid=COS59t6KzNMCFUFAGwodgGcEoQ ]this adapter[/url], which is thinner.
Quite why these aren't available separately, is a mystery - in fact, Shimano should just supply with all of their rotors, and provide compatibility with all axle/fork combinations.
have you spoken to Hunt? i've messaged Hamish from there; they're aware of the problem and have said they'll post one of the low profile 15mm lockrings to me!!
Yes, problem solved. Hunt sent me a slim lockring and having fitted it today, all it well!
Don't forget them pics when it's built too!
😉
my lockring appeared Saturday in a nice neat package from Hunt . Then the one from Wiggle appeared eventually today, oh well...
