Conversion to other axle standard

Different onversion kits are available for the hubs in order to be able to adjust the wheels to different dropouts
on the frame and fork
For the conversion, the following applies in both directions:
Front wheel:
– quick release skewer on 12 mm thru axle: only the axle end caps will be changed
– quick release skewer on 15 mm thru axle: axle and axle end caps will be changed
– from 12 mm plug-type axle to 15 mm thru axle: axle and axle end caps will be changed
Rear wheel:
– from quick release skewer to 12 x 142 mm thru axle: only the end caps will be changed
The only changing of the axle end caps are carried out without tools For changing the
N O T E
axle and end caps, we recommend only the specialist dealer For removal and installation
of the new axle, special tools and skills are required
