... And can I get/had anyone got any 15mm end caps?
Appears to be a 20mm axle. If i could convert them to 15x100 that would be super handy....
Any idea?
Ta!
I think it's a V6, I'm pretty sure they still sell end caps so you might be able to get some
Look like V6 to me too, can still get adapters from superstar just hope they send you the right ones, they sent me the wrong ones and its been a month so far trying to sort an exchange 😒 Luckily I have a spare wheel I'm using!
A V6 would have it written on the hub centre and have extra machining to the outer flanges, I could be wrong but maybe its an original Tesla, not the Evo version, I think they share the same end caps as nukeproof generator 3in1 hubs and superstar have end caps still available, even a boosted driveside end cap like Hope do.
Yeah, not a V6 I think.
The flanges would have bits machined out. The Switch? Flanges have holes all the way through the flanges. I think @noeffsgiven is probably right.
Brilliant, thanks everyone!
Why not email superstar?

Good luck getting a reply if you do, Been buying off SS for year but they've disappointed me recently TBH
You could get a 20 to 15mm axle adapter basically a tube the right size. Slightly less elegant but would do the job
Think that’s a switch hub
Tesla end caps are in the discontinued hub spares section but for an extra fiver there's the Tesla Evo hub at £20 in the special offers section in a few colours and has SKF bearings, there might even be an applicable discount code dropping soon too.
Neil's only interest in anything cycling related these days is basking in the demise of crc wiggle.
@superstarcomponents has indeed been active but on the same thread said he wasn't really interested in the business (or something close) so make of that what you will. Certainly shows when he can take the time to find the CRC thread and just skim by this one.

He evidently has time to get into page 42 of CRC's financial statement and comment at length but can't offer support for his own customers.
Maybe he'd just have to look into the Taiwan bike bits catalogue as he wouldn't recoginise what he's been selling if it ran up to him and stuck squid down his trousers?
These do indeed work really well but as has been pointed out, would make for boost spacing.
No luck I'm afraid
Why not DM neil at superstar using the forum message service?
What makes you think he gives a ****? He's already been @'d, too busy commenting on other folks businesses to deal with his own.
I don't think he gives a tom tit.
OP has nothing to lose by sending a DM.
Ive messaged superstar a couple of times on FB, and both times had helpful replies within a few hours
Hello i can see there is a lot of anger up there? To answer the second question i don't spend all day trawling the internet for random questions posted on 3rd party websites, im only talking on the CRC one as its open on the tab on my phone as im interested in the discussion. i probably look at single track forum front page once a month if you are lucky. I only managed to actually find this as someone tagged me and STW emailed me, otherwise im not quite psychic enough to know.
So you want to ask Superstar a question, i would try Facebook (although the app is chucking an immense amount of junk in the feed so i apologise if its been missed) or more normally for a web business you just email us...
Anyway the answer to your question is the hub has tesla lasered on it, so its a tesla. if you type tesla in the search on the webshop it shows all the tesla spares such as the endcaps. if we dont have the spares for a nearly decade old hub it is made by KT and is sold by loads of people such as nukeproof. I hope that covers it, it seems pretty logical to me.
If you have any other questions please email!
Neil Superstar Components.
I gave you a heads up on the CRC thread days ago, guess you missed it, I also pointed the OP in the right direction for the end caps thus solving the issue last week.
