Thu axle = 10mm Std on the back and 9mm front - so you want a PRO II hub kit or hub 135 (std) with 10mm conversion kit from hope - did it 3 months ago on my Five.

The 12mm is the maxle version so I think you need the 12mm conversion kit or but as a hub/built wheel. I think - can't get onto CRC to check!

if it really is 9mm then you don't want to use a Hope 10mm axle, cos it'll move. Not much but enough to cause problems.

But like the others have said 9mm at the back is news to me. Mind you I thought it was 9mm front and back until I checked it out for the Pro II 10mm conversion I did on my rear hub.

And if it's an Orange Alpine, I though that was 12mm - which Orange's spares list seems to suggest is the case (though not conclusive) - and the fact that they are using a Pro II rear hub which comes as QR, 10mm bolt up, 10mm bolt through, or 12mm Maxle again suggests 12mm. Of course they could have spec'ed a bespoke, and therefore more expensive, less strong 9mm axle, but I would be surprised

are you sure its 9mm mate, i know its a different bike but my blood has a 12mm maxle. id of thought it would be the same on the alpine as both bikes are specd in either all mountain or freeride options.

recon the alpine with a rp23 2010 with boost plus 160 coil lyrik will be a good setup..
