Does anyone know if [url= https://www.merlincycles.com/hope-20five-rs4-road-cx-disc-wheel-700c-95181.html?utm_campaign=googlebase-GB&utm_source=googlebase&utm_medium=shopping&utm_term=Factory+Road+Disc+Wheels&ucpo=35317&gclid=CjwKCAjw3f3NBRBPEiwAiiHxGHQei85IfovCkcf7MPEpuHHLWEKxwiC3gUS1wfpFkzNlSX0tVzJQjBoCcFUQAvD_BwE ]these[/url] are thru axle compatible?

Hope site says they are but doesn't say that on the Merlin site and wonder if these are an older version.

The hubs are compatible, but it's not clear if they come with the necessary adaptors.

Yeh that's what I'm confused about, and it doesn't even mention adapters.

Yes they are compatible but you may need to buy the adapters separately. Mine came with as I asked for them to fit my Scottt Addict cross bike.

I've sent merlin an email, just seems daft that they don't have the full product details on their site.

So merlin came back to say the wheel comes with an adapter for a 15mm thru axle but 12mm adapter is available to buy separately. That's a bit odd as it conflicts with what the hope site says.

So I've ordered now anyway with the additional adapter so I'll see what turns up.
