Hi guys - notice these are cheap just now. My question is can you squeeze in a 148mm boost hub? The add says you can’t but then the review are mixed.

Minoura looks like it should.

I've built Boost wheels with the Minoura.

Not tried it, but the jaws on mine open up to 152mm*. By this point they are a little way past upright (130mm is parallel) so you may need an additional way of keeping the axle securely in the jaws possibly.

*I only have had one of these stands so I do not know how generally consistent this measurement is across the product though.

Cheers guys. Likely worth a punt. I dare say it can be modified if needs be.
