As above I have a DT Swiss E1900 Wheelset I’m looking to sell where the back wheel is boost 148x12 but the front is 15x100 non-boost.
I’m wondering whether it would sell better if I picked up a boost conversion kit for the front wheel - I can see there’s an MRP Boostinator that does that job, but is there an official DT Swiss pair of end caps?
I’ve been googling with no definitive answer - I’m basically looking for the cheapest decent way to get the front 370 to boost specification (no loose spacers like the velosolo type solution).
Not for the 370 I don't believe.
Ok - I haven’t been able to find anything DT branded tbf. Looks like the Wolftooth boostinator / mrp better boost are the best options with loose washer kits with a rotor spacer as a cheaper alternative.
DT don't do Boost adaptor kits for non-Boost hubs. They sell end caps kits, but they're the same for 110/100 and 148/142 as it's the hub body and axle that differ.
Boostinator looks like the cheapest option that doesn’t have loose adapters. Think I’ll keep that back as an idea if the wheels don’t sell within a few weeks (no massive hurry - just means I can start buying bits to build my new wheelset once I’ve sold these)
I have the same issue 🙁
Got some really nice DT Swiss XMC 1200 carbon wheels to shift. Problem is the rear is non-boost and the front is boost (650b, 25mm inner).
I might just stick them up for sale still though as I suppose they'd be ideal to go on an older frame with a newer fork?
Went through the DT Swiss docs and found that they couldn't be converted...
I’ve just stuck them on the classifieds here, eBay, Pinkbike and Facebook classifieds for now. If I don’t get any interest then I’ll either see about selling the wheels separately or pick up a WT Boostinator I think. Although that means I’ll need to re-dish the wheel which I’d prefer not to do.
