[Closed] Is there any call for non disc, quick release King hubs??

[#7545788]

Been offered a very tidy trials bike for a decent price though it's fitted with a non disc rear hub and ideally I would want to run it dual disc. The hub is a non disc Chris King with a QR axle (could be single speed), if I bought the bike would I have much trouble selling the hub to fund a Pro 2??
Never had a Chris King before and whilst I like the idea it's pretty much no go from the start!

out of curiosity, how much would you want for them (and are they both blue?). My trials bike is qr front and rear. I'm sticking with my magura rim brakes.

I'm sure it'd be easy to sell on retrobike.

It's just the rear, the front is a silver diatech and has a different rim (which plays all sorts of hell with my bike OCD!).
I've no idea on price, where do you even start with one?
I suppose I'd just want enough to buy me a Pro 2!

ahh, ok. It'd bug me too, to have non-matching hubs. If you had a CK front, I'd be interested.

ask on retrobike, I'm sure someone would want it ๐Ÿ™‚

KK is the only manufacturer of SS non-disc hubs so you should have no trouble selling on ebay.

No idea what you'd realise money wise but it would sell, without doubt ๐Ÿ˜‰

Nice, looks like that's the one to go for then!
