Thinking about swapping over frames and this would mean ideally keeping a nice set of carbon 29 er wheels. The wheels have DT Swiss 240s 142x12mm hubs so I was looking back at the Lindarets Boostinator convertors.

Firstly, has anyone tried these yet and secondly where did you get them from as various google searches haven’t generated anything more than the Lindarets website, I’d like a UK shop if anyone knows of anyone?

Benny,

Thanks for your interest! Our UK distributor isn’t carrying the Boostinator at the moment, so your best options are to purchase direct or through our Swiss distributor (Ruchti Bicycle).

We haven’t seen any editorial reviews yet, but there are a handful of testimonials on MTBR and Ibis are using them to Boost their house-brand wheelsets: http://reviews.mtbr.com/ibis-mojo-hd3-plus-sized-rear-end-retrofit-how-to/3 Of course we think that they’re awesome, but we would 😉

That’s fantastic, I wasn’t expecting to hear directly from the manufacturers, thanks for the message! 😀

I’ve made a note of both 18 Bikes as UK importers and Ruchti Bikes in Switzerland. As and when I need to purchase a required Boostinator I’ll make contact.

Thanks again!
