Spesh E150 Fork Adapters to Quick Release or 20mm/15mm axle

Anyone know if there is such a thing?

There isn’t such a thing – I looked into having one made at a local engineering firm and we came up with a decent design, but I ended up selling the forks before any testers were made so it never happened. If I remember correctly it was fairly simple.

Its a shame, as the forks were superb, but theres 2 options
a) buy (if you can find a set) some roval traverse? wheels – there a certain year they will fit and are supposed to be pretty good
b) have the origiinal hub built onto a different rim.

Hi,

I think you will find that a suitable adaptor should be available for at least the older traverse wheels. I have a few sets and all came with 9,20 and the 25mm adaptors (the one you are after). I think they changed the hubs on the traverse wheels recently (2010 or 2011), so look for the older wheels and you should be able to get an adaptor. I am not sure if they do a 25mm adaptor for the newer traverse wheels.

Cheers guys, I’ll have a look at the rovals….

I recently picked up a second hub on ebay, to build into a new wheel after suffering the same problem fieldy. Good luck with the quest.

Industry9 also make wheels/hubs for the E150.

anyone got a spare hub??

I believe certain dt Swiss hubs are fairly easily adapted. Also I bought one of the hubs from Specialized only 4 months ago…

um, i’d be after a adaptor too.

there must be some engineering genius on here who could do it???

I’ve got a spare 25mm adapter for the Roval Traversee wheels – and the wheels to fit them to if you’d like them? The last of my 26″ bits. Drop me an email if you’re interested.
