Looking to change my Bos Deville for a new fork.
As they all seem to be Boost i checked my front wheel for available axle caps to convert.
But, when I measure through the axle between the bits that stick out it measures 110mm.
Cant be possible that Ive had the wrong hub/axle/ fork combo can it?
I had the bike in the shop as the wheel looked buckled slightly but was told it must be the tyreAs the wheel was fine🤔
Or have I measured the wrong part?
You need to measure the gap between the inside of the fork legs, or alternatively the hub width ?
What’s the axle diameter, 20 or 15mm?
Its a 20mm axle, gap on forks looks like 110 and the other front wheel I had on another bike with the forks is 110 also.
Ok, that’s not boost, confusingly.
15x100 = Non boost
Older 20x110 = Non boost
15x110 = Boost
Newer 20x110 boost = Boost, different to the old one on account of rotor spacing.
If adapters are available depends on your hub.
Factor Components 127 hub and a Hope Pro 4 are hubs I have. Cant see any marking on the hope to say what it is tbough.
If the pro 4 is the front then you can convert that from 20mm non boost to 15mm boost. Hope make a kit. The wheel will need redishing.
The Hope kit will also fit Pro2 Evo hubs
Not sure about Pro2 pre Evo but suspect it will.
The pre Evo pro 2 front is the same (other than switch to stainless bearings) as the Evo version so kit will also fit that.
Thanks all.
Can you still use Flickr to post pics on here?

I will look into this, I think I binned the hope front wheel when I couldn't get the tubeless to stay up. Although still confused on the 110mm on 100mm forks

Your old fork will have been a 110 spacing if it was a 20mm axle.
This however is different to 110 Boost spacing despite them both measuring 110mm.
The disc rotor location is different in 110x20 and 110 Boost.
