looking at a good local deal on a fork; only problem is it's 20mm thru and current hub is 15mm thru. these look like the only quick solution other than buying/building another wheel. anyone ever try em? or have a different solution to go 15mm to 20mm: https://www.ebay.com/i/352133705534?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-117182-37290-0&mkcid=2&itemid=352133705534&targetid=873234625408&device=m&mktype=pla&googleloc=9009970&poi=&campaignid=9338046410&mkgroupid=92724249057&rlsatarget=aud-622524041238:pla-873234625408&abcId=1139336&merchantid=101810961&gclid=CjwKCAiAp5nyBRABEiwApTwjXrwgS_IB8sqVX1z95B3-f3bV8o9uYwCBg_tmuYs1INd2lcDBy-0AJhoC0AwQAvD_BwE

those are 20mm to 15mm reducers. you'll need different endcaps for your hub to increase in size

 

[HAB]

What hub and fork are we talking here?

 

[jonKranked]

what's your current hub?

 

[jstuhlman]

hope pro4 15mm-looking at a cheap 380 that's 20mm

 

[jonKranked]

get the 380 and a real hub.

 

[WestCoastHucker]

hope makes 20mm endcaps for that hub

wellshit...i have an old 20mm pro2 lying around that's the wrong width (100 vs 110); guess i could see if its endcaps would fit. had just assumed the current one was 15mm all the way through...

Endcap swap should be all you need, unless there's Boost fuckery afoot.

Ewwww, 180 degree guard, I guess a dentist is only going to use it for making pretty Insta pics so it probably doesn't matter.

Is that the bike thieves training video?

Probably going to need moar shimz

 

[SylentK]

If you get that 20mm fork, id build a new wheel around the proper hub. Trust me the stiffness is noticeable. Then maybe use the conversion bits for back up wheel.

 

[StiHacka]

I may have some Hope Pro 2 20mm adapters. Are Hope Pro 4 different?

 

[Gary]

Are Hope Pro 4 different?

thx. looks like they're out of stock of the one i think i'd need...but i'm suspicious it'd just be the same 20mm endcaps from my pro2 that are too "tall"

 

[VMARTINEZ]

if you work at a shop just call Hope USA. They will take care of you if they have the part.

i don't even work at a shop and for the past 20 years, i've always just called them directly and dealt with them. they are always more than helpful...

Do these adapters fix cracked chainstays?
