[#4091897]

hi there,

just a quick question. have a hope pro 2 hub on the front and going to be changing my forks. the new forks have a 15mm maxle on and the old forks were 20mm. can i just buy a reducer type thing to decrease the internal diameter of the hub?
is that how it works?
can anyone provide a link to what i need please...

Depends on exactly which pro 2 model (evo?) but...

Yep, AFAIK a 15mm maxle is not as stiff as the equivilent 20mm maxle.
