Nope, pretty sure that's a Bulb hub.

See here... [url= http://www.hopetech.com/product-documents/hubs/ ]Hope Hub Archive[/url]

Hope have never sold 15mm adaptors for the Bulb hub.

However, you can machine down the Pro II adaptor to fit. As shown by myself on this post from last year...

I would say that is a Bulb too.

Don't disheartened though.
Buy the Pro II adapters and find someone to machine the non-brake side one down. I did mine in a lunchtime, including eating a sarnie and having a cuppa!

It's been solid for 7 months now, including days at BPW, etc.

Well, not at the same time obviously. Mmm, swarf.

mail the pic to Hope as I'm sure that code should answer all the questions

The easiest way to tell is to look at the current 20mm adapters. If they're the same size it's a Pro 2, if not it's a bulb.
