I wanted to run a 10-42t on a folding bike but could not find a XD driver anywhere. I did find a hub eventually after weeks of searching. Brand is called Koozer if anyone wants to look. Koozer 450 front 5x100/rear 5x130mm QR/120 HD I was going to build some wheels.. but they also offer sets. If it works out maybe ill post a vid of the build.
You are a hero! I have been trying for days to find out if it's even possible! I want to buy a set of entry level DT Swiss wheels but they're all 12x142mm thru axle and i have quick release. I have found conversion kits from DT Swiss themselves for some of their hubs but the the difference in widths is not explained anywhere. Thank you =)
My hubs on old bike are towards their death and so hard to find hubs for them since my front wheel has 28 spokes and rear 32. My new bike has Bontrager Affinity Disc wheels with thru axle so was just searching for ways to use that wheel on old bike and then I could spend money on buying good wheels for new bike :)
If the hub is assembled into a wheel, his method won’t work. What I did was that ,through the hole, knocking one side out with a screw. Hit the shoulder with a screw.
Ive the QR adaptors but fitting them is nigh on impossible. I watched your video multiple times and despite my effort cannot get them to click in place. 😒
@@PortugueseEvolution Hi, I have the DT Swiss ARC 1100 Dicut DB wheels. Trying to replace the bolt through with the QR adaptors, as recommended by DT Swiss. You make it look so easy but I’m struggling.
Hello Julian, here is the link for the part, keep in mind that the 142 mm hub is the best to convert it to 135 mm. You can also find the hub there too. Hope this helps. www.chainreactioncycles.com/dt-swiss-conversion-kit-12mm-to-qr-rear/rp-prod23858
