zetecmk2 Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 is there a cheap source of hubs? bmx? or is it trials specific? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted March 30, 2014 Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 Struggling to understand what the question is here lol. There's a lot of bikes that use 135mm and 116mm hubs, and you can get frames that use both. People used to use profile freehubs on the back but Chris King would be a better bet or even a machined down pro2. An even better bet would be to go front freewheel.

zetecmk2 Posted March 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2014 trials isn't my main thing...i just like messing about on small walls, kerbs etc so didn't really want another bunch of wheels which are not 135mm. but if there is a common source of 116mm hubs...that'd be great. didn't really want to go front freewheel due to expense. as it is, i build my trials bikes with mtb parts....of which i have loads. but my adamant frame turned up yesterday....and it's not 135mm spacing. if i knew this, i would have probably got another frame...so i can still use mtb parts. i can build wheels so just need to know where to look for a cheap source of 116mm hubs!
