Hi chaps,

Does anyone know if Hope do Boost Adapters for their pro4 hubs?

Just bought a Santa Cruz, which didn't spec the fork as Boost, so built up a standard non-boost pro4 hub onto some nice rims. And got the bike today.... With a Boost fork!

I've dropped hope a mail, and will give them a bell, but just seeing if anyone knows on here to out my mind at rest, or whether I'm buying another hub!

Cheers

Ricks

Yes they do but you'll need to redish the wheel across slightly as it's annoying with it off centre.

Awesome. Also just checked and got the part number.

HUB1009-14N

Any idea which side it'll need dishing more to? I've got good length spokes on one side and shorter spokes on the other as the erd was a good 2.5mm out!

It sits closer to the disc side fork leg if that makes sense as the disc side spacer is the same as a standard one with a longer end cap on the non disc side

Awesome. My longer spokes are the drive side, so will easily stretch across.

Damn Santa Cruz for updating their specs randomly.

Which is the drive side on a front wheel ?

Don't you need to space the brake out as well ?

The disk side.

No caliper/rotor spacing required if it involves re-dishing the wheel.

Drive side is the non-disc side isn't it? Drive side is right, if you're sat on the bike.

LOL - I read the question as "what is the non-drive side" ๐Ÿ˜ณ rickon is, of course, correct (unless it's a Cotic Roadrat......)
