Hi,
I've just got a pair of crossmax ST, I'm currently running the 12mm rear with a qr adaptor but would like to use my 10mm bolt-through, does anyone know of a good reducing solution to enable me to do this as Mavic don't make one

Thanks, Paul

I have an Azonic Momentum step-down axle on my Demo, allows me to use a 12x135 Mavic wheel in 10mm drops.

It's a 12mm steel lump with 10mm ends though, so not the lightest solution.

I think Mavic Crosslines used a 10mm adapter, they might fit if you could find a set.

Drill a 10mm hole through the q/r adaptors.
The 10mm ends of the adaptors will disappear but that is what you want as your using a 10mm through bolt.
I converted a 12mm to 10 by making a sleeve on my lathe.
If your anywhere near Edinburgh I could do the same for you but I'd need the wheel
Cheers
Mike
