[Closed] Fox 36 QR15 adapter: Backwards compatible?

I've recently aquired a S/H bike with a Fox 36 fork. For the last couple of winters, I've run an Exposure Revo dynamo light, using the 15mm axle SP dynamo. Obviously, that's not going to work with the new 20mm fork...

Or is it? I see that the 36 now comes with a QR15 adapter; does anybody know if this will fit earlier forks? I think mine's a 2013 model, although it might be 2012.

So, that's a universal 'Don't know' I take it? ๐Ÿ˜•

I would say not. The older 36's had a larger thread that screwed into one side of the fork. On the newer ones it looks like the thread is the right size for a 15mm axle but based on the 20mm axle. You just change the main axle and put a couple of spacers in for 15mm.
