    You’d need a custom axle I think. Are the hubs definitely not convertible? If not its still probably cheaper to swap hubs

    Assumed the hub wasn’t convertible…might have to double check! Novatec D541SB….

    Thanks

    Can sell you a cheap flow ex rim on DT Swiss 350 20 mm hub if you’re interested.

    These should do it,they’re a push fit.
    Other brands are available

    I used similar on my Crests,when I changed forks from 20mm to 15mm.

    Those are specific to the hubs.

    Sorry,it’s Sunday morning,you’re right al,you may find that that they use an adapter for 15mm as Google says they sell them in 20mm ,15mm and QR.in which case removing the adapter may well do it, as the default is usually 20mm.

    Thanks all. I think I might have found some Novatec adapters (should have checked first).

    Sorted! Thanks all. Novatec EU selling them for £12 delivered. Cheaper than new lowers or new hub.

    Thanks all
