So....I'm after a cheapish new fork to get my bike back up and running. A mate has a Rev up for sale for a decent price. Only problem is, it's 20mm and I'm currently on a 15mm Maxle. Is there a convertor?

Also wtf is 'boost'? Everything seemed a lot simpler 10 years ago when I first got into it!!!

You can't convert the fork, but you might be able to convert your hub - what kind of hub is it?

Boost means a wider hub - 15mm hubs used to be 100mm wide, boost 15mm hubs are 110mm wide

Straight answer is possibly for your hub, not that I'm aware of for the fork.
