Buying a set of wheels with Hope pro 2 hubs, the frame appears to have a 135 x 20 mm rear axle but can't find this hope hub on Chain reaction etc...am I being stupid ? Have I measured it right ?

If you have a Maxle = 135mm x 12mm, [b]not 20mm[/b]

If you run QR = 135 x [b]10mm[/b] (normal QR adapters for Pro2)

Wysiwyg, thanks but I don't need wheels as burly as that for this bike
