Afternoon,

Following on from my previous post of putting Hope pro2's on DT Swiss XMC130 forks I have realised after discussions with Hope that I must have a bulb hub (look very similar and use the same bearings) not a Pro 2.

So I have the 15mm converters designed for Pro 2 hubs which gerenally fit but the spacing is slightly wrong (bit too wide and need the spacing on the disc brake etc right). I a fairly competent machinist and have access to lathes and stuff so wondering if anyone had any thoughts as I do not really want to buy a new wheel just for the sake of it? Anyone know what the spacing are supposed to be on various aspects of the fork/wheel interaction, might be able to calculate them from there?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Chaz
